| Nature of the business | Note 1. - Nature of the business Atlantica Yield plc (“Atlantica” or the “Company”) was incorporated in England and Wales as a private limited company on December 17, 2013 under the name Abengoa Yield Limited. On March 19, 2014, the Company was re-registered as a public limited company, under the name Abengoa Yield plc. On May 13, 2016, the change of the Company´s registered name to Atlantica Yield plc was filed with the Registrar of Companies in the United Kingdom. Atlantica is a total return company that owns, manages and acquires renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission lines and water assets focused on North America (the United States and Mexico), South America (Peru, Chile and Uruguay) and EMEA (Spain, Algeria and South Africa). On March 9, 2018, Algonquin Power & Utilities (“Algonquin”) announced that it completed the acquisition from Abengoa S.A, (“Abengoa”) of a 25% equity interest in Atlantica, becoming the largest shareholder of the Company. Algonquin does not consolidate the Company in its consolidated financial statements. On June 18, 2014, Atlantica closed its initial public offering issuing 24,850,000 ordinary shares. The shares were offered at a price of $29 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $720,650 thousand. The underwriters further purchased 3,727,500 additional shares from the selling shareholder, a subsidiary wholly owned by Abengoa, at the public offering price less fees and commissions to cover over-allotments (“greenshoe”) driving the total proceeds of the offering to $828,748 thousand. Prior to the consummation of this offering, Abengoa contributed, through a series of transactions, which we refer to collectively as the “Asset Transfer,” ten concessional assets described below, certain holding companies and a preferred equity investment in Abengoa Concessoes Brasil Holding (“ACBH”). As consideration for the Asset Transfer, Abengoa received a 64.28% interest in Atlantica and $655.3 million in cash, corresponding to the net proceeds of the initial public offering less $30 million retained by Atlantica for liquidity purposes. Atlantica’s shares began trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “ABY” on June 13, 2014. The symbol changed to “AY” on November 11, 2017. On February 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of a 100% stake in a 4 MW hydroelectric power plant in Perú (“Mini-Hydro”) for approximately $9 million. The following table provides an overview of the concessional assets the Company owned as of June 30, 2018:
On November 27, 2015, Abengoa, reported that, it filed a communication pursuant to article 5 bis of the Spanish Insolvency Law 22/2003 with the Mercantile Court of Seville nº 2. On November 8, 2016, the Judge of the Mercantile Court of Seville declared judicial approval of Abengoa´s restructuring agreement. On March 31, 2017 Abengoa announced the completion of the restructuring. As a result, Atlantica Yield received Abengoa debt and equity instruments in exchange of the guarantee previously provided by Abengoa regarding the preferred equity investment in ACBH. The financing arrangement of Kaxu contained cross-default provisions related to Abengoa, such that debt defaults by Abengoa, subject to certain threshold amounts and/or a restructuring process, could trigger defaults under such project financing arrangement. In March 2017, the Company signed a waiver which gives clearance to cross-default that might have arisen from Abengoa insolvency and restructuring up to that date, but does not extend to potential future cross-default events. In addition, the financing arrangements of Kaxu, Solana and Mojave contained a change of ownership clause that would be triggered if Abengoa ceased to own a minimum of Atlantica Yield’s shares. Based on the most recent public information, Abengoa currently owns 16.47% of Atlantica Yield shares, all of which are pledged as guarantee of asset-backed notes. On March 9, 2018 Abengoa announced it made effective the sale of a 25% stake in Atlantica Yield to Algonquin. Additionally, Algonquin announced on April 17, 2018, that it had exercised an option to purchase the 16.47% remaining stake in Atlantica held by Abengoa, subject to approval by the U.S. Department of Energy (the “DOE”) and other conditions precedent. If Abengoa ceases to comply with its obligation to maintain its 16% ownership of Atlantica Yield ‘s shares, such reduced ownership would put the Company in breach of covenants under the applicable project financing arrangements. In the case of Kaxu in March 2017 the Company signed a waiver, which allows reduction of ownership by Abengoa below the 35% threshold if it is done in the context of restructuring plan. In the case of Solana and Mojave, a forbearance agreement signed with the DOE in 2016 with respect to these assets allows reductions of Abengoa’s ownership of the shares of the Company if it results from (i) a sale or other disposition at any time pursuant and in connection with a subsequent insolvency proceeding by Abengoa, or (ii) capital increases by the Company. In other events of reduction of ownership by Abengoa below the minimum ownership threshold such as sales of stake in Atlantica Yield by Abengoa, the available DOE remedies will not include debt acceleration, but DOE remedies available could include limitations on distributions to the Company from Solana and Mojave. In addition, the minimum ownership threshold for Abengoa’s ownership of the shares of the Company has been reduced from 35% to 16%. In November 2017, in the context of the agreement reached between Abengoa and Algonquin for the acquisition by Algonquin of 25% of the shares of the Company and based on the obligations of Abengoa under the EPC contract the Company signed a consent with the DOE which reduces this minimum ownership required by Abengoa in Atlantica Yield to 16%, which became effective upon closing of the transaction on March 9, 2018. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on July 31, 2018. |

| Basis of preparation | Note 2. - Basis of preparation The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed interim financial statements represent the consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company entered into an agreement with Abengoa on June 13, 2014 (the “ROFO Agreement”), as amended and restated on December 9, 2014, that provides the Company with a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of Abengoa’s contracted renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission or water assets in operation and located in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Brazil, Colombia and the European Union, as well as four assets in selected countries in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. The Company elected to account for the assets acquisitions under the ROFO Agreement using the Predecessor values as long as Abengoa had control over the Company, given that these were transactions between entities under common control. Any difference between the consideration given and the aggregate book value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired entities as of the date of the transaction has been reflected as an adjustment to equity. Abengoa has not had control over the Company since December 31, 2015. Therefore, any acquisition from Abengoa is accounted for in the consolidated accounts of Atlantica Yield since December 31, 2015, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. The Company’s annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, were approved by the Board of Directors on February 27, 2018. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. In accordance with IAS 34, interim financial information is prepared solely in order to update the most recent annual consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company, placing emphasis on new activities, occurrences and circumstances that have taken place during the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and not duplicating the information previously published in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. Therefore, the consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required in complete consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the IFRS-IASB (“International Financial Reporting Standards-International Accounting Standards Board”). In view of the above, for an adequate understanding of the information, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements must be read together with Atlantica’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the 2017 20-F. In determining the information to be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements, Atlantica, in accordance with IAS 34, has taken into account its materiality in relation to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. Amounts included in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements are all expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Application of new accounting standards
The applications of these amendments have not had any material impact on these consolidated condensed interim financial statements. In relation to IFRS 15, IFRS 9 and IFRS 16, the Company performed following analysis: IFRS 15 ‘Revenues from contracts with Customers’ In May 2014, the IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) published IFRS 15 “Recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. This Standard brings together all the applicable requirements and replaces the current standards for recognizing revenue: IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Program, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and SIC-31 Revenue—Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. The new requirements may lead to changes in the current revenue profile, since the Standard’s main principle is that the Company must recognize its revenue in accordance with the transfer of goods or services to the customers in an amount which reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The model laid out by the Standard is structured in five steps:
Contracted concessional assets and price purchase agreements (PPAs) include fixed assets financed through project debt, related to service concession arrangements recorded in accordance with International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee 12 (“IFRIC 12”), except for Palmucho, which is recorded in accordance with IAS 17 and PS10, PS20 and Seville PV, which are recorded as tangible assets in accordance with IAS 16. The infrastructures accounted for by the Company as concessions are related to the activities concerning electric transmission lines, solar electricity generation plants, efficient natural gas plants, wind farms and water plants. Currently, assets recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12 are classified as intangible assets or as financial assets, depending on the nature of the payment entitlements established in the contracts. According to IFRS 15, the Company should assess the goods and services promised in the contracts with the customers and shall identify as a performance obligation each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or a bundle of goods or services). In the case of contracts related to financial assets, the Company has identified two performance obligations (construction and operation of the asset). The contracts state that each service (construction and operation) has its own transaction price. For this reason, both performance obligations are separately identifiable in the context of the contract. The Company must allocate the total consideration to be received by the contract to each performance obligation. As mentioned above, the different services performed have been identified as two different performance obligations (construction and operation). Each performance obligation has its own transaction price stated in the contract. Such transaction prices are agreed in the contract by the parties in an orderly transaction, with no interrelation between both transaction prices and therefore correspond to the fair value of the goods and services provided in each case. As a result, for IFRS 15 purposes, the total transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation in accordance with the two transaction prices stated within the contract, as they represent the respective fair values of the identified performance obligations. For the assets classified as intangible assets, the Company has identified the same performance obligations, (construction and operation), but in this case the consideration received by the Company for the construction services is a license. The grantor makes a non-cash payment for the construction services by giving the operator an intangible asset. When allocating fair value for IFRS 15 purposes, the Company will recognize as revenue for the first performance obligation the fair value of the construction services, and the amount corresponding to the sales of energy as the fair value of second performance obligation (operation). Additionally, in both cases, the services are satisfied over time. All the concessional assets of the Company are in operation and the Company satisfies the performance obligations and recognizes revenue over time. The same conclusion applies to concessional assets that are classified as tangible assets or leases. IFRS 15 also incorporates specific criteria to determine which costs relating to a contract should be capitalized by distinguishing between incremental costs of obtaining a contract and costs associated with fulfilling a contract. No significant costs of obtaining a contract or compliance (other than those that are already capitalized) have been identified. As the practice for revenue recognition applied until December 31, 2017, is consistent with the analysis above under IFRS 15, the Company considers that the adoption of this standard has no impact in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Also, the Company adopted IFRS 15 applying the full retrospective method to each prior reporting period presented, but without changes in the comparative reporting periods as the adoption of the standard has no effect in the financial statements. IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments issued on 24 July 2014 is the IASB’s replacement of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2018, including the new requirements for hedge accounting. The Company adopted retrospectively without re-expressing comparative periods. The analysis performed by the Company is as follows:
a) Financial assets IFRS 9 classifies all financial assets that are currently in the scope of IAS 39 into two categories: amortized cost and fair value. Where assets are measured at fair value, gains and losses are either recognized entirely in profit or loss (fair value through profit or loss, “FVTPL”), or recognized in other comprehensive income (fair value through other comprehensive income, “FVTOCI”). The new guidance has no significant impact on the classification and measurement of the financial assets of the Company as the vast majority of financial assets (except for derivatives) are currently measured at amortized cost, and meet the conditions for classification at amortized cost under IFRS 9. As a result, the Company maintained this classification. b) Financial liabilities: IFRS 9 does not change the basic accounting model for financial liabilities under IAS 39. Two measurement categories continue to exist: FVTPL and amortized cost. Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at FVTPL, and all other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost unless the fair value option is applied. As a result, the Company concluded that there is no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
The impact of applying IFRS 9 to the condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 is not significant. IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ The IASB issued a new lease accounting standard, IFRS 16, in January 2016, which requires the recognition of lease contracts on the consolidated statement of financial position. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee. Instead all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applying IAS 17. Leases are ‘capitalized’ by recognizing the present value of the lease payments and showing them either as lease assets (right-of-use of assets) or together with property, plant and equipment. If lease payments are made over time, a company also recognizes a financial liability representing its obligation to make future lease payments. In the income statement, IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating lease expense for those leases applying IAS 17, with a depreciation charge for the lease asset (included within operating expenses) and an interest expense on the lease liability (included within finance expenses). IFRS 16 also impacts the presentation of cash flows related to former off-balance sheet leases. The Company performed its assessment of the impact on its consolidated financial statements. The most significant impact identified is that the Company recognizes new assets and liabilities for its existing operating leases of land rights, buildings, offices and equipment. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted for entities that apply IFRS 15 at or before the date of initial application of IFRS 16. The Company decided to early adopt the standard as of January 1, 2018. An entity shall apply this standard using one of the following two methods: full retrospectively approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company has chosen the latter and accounted for assets as an amount equal to liability at the date of initial application. The impact on the opening balance sheet of these consolidated financial statements is shown in the table below. The impact of applying IFRS 16 to the condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 is not significant. Summary of adjustments arising from application of IFRS 9 and IFRS 16 as of December 31, 2017
(*) The expected credit losses provision only applies to the concessional assets recorded as financial assets for an amount before provision of $936,004 thousand as of December 31, 2017 (see Note 6).
The Company does not anticipate any significant impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements derived from the application of the new standards and amendments that will be effective for annual periods beginning after June 30, 2018, although it is currently still in the process of evaluating such application. Use of estimates Some of the accounting policies applied require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on the Company´s historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Company operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted. The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, are as follows:
As of the date of preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at June 30, 2018 are expected. Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the consolidated income statement of the period in which the change occurs. |

Efficient natural gas: The Company´s sole efficient natural gas asset is ACT, a 300 MW cogeneration plant in Mexico, which is party to a 20-year take-or-pay contract with Pemex for the sale of electric power and steam. Electric transmission lines: Electric transmission assets include (i) three lines in Peru, ATN, ATS and ATN2, spanning a total of 1,012 miles; and (ii) three lines in Chile, Quadra 1, Quadra 2 and Palmucho, spanning a total of 87 miles. Water: Water assets include a minority interest in two desalination plants in Algeria, Honaine and Skikda with an aggregate capacity of 10.5 M ft3 per day. Atlantica Yield’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) assesses the performance and assignment of resources according to the identified operating segments. The CODM considers the revenues as a measure of the business activity and the Further Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of the performance of each segment. Further Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as profit/(loss) for the period attributable to the parent company, after adding back loss/(profit) attributable to non-controlling interests from continued operations, income tax, share of profit/(loss) of associates carried under the equity method, finance expense net, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges of entities included in these consolidated financial statements, and compensation received from Abengoa in lieu of ACBH dividends (for the period up to the first quarter of 2017 only). In order to assess performance of the business, the CODM receives reports of each reportable segment using revenues and Further Adjusted EBITDA. Net interest expense evolution is assessed on a consolidated basis. Financial expense and amortization are not taken into consideration by the CODM for the allocation of resources. In the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, Atlantica had four customers with revenues representing more than 10% of the total revenues, three in the renewable energy and one in the efficient natural gas business sectors.
The reconciliation of segment Further Adjusted EBITDA with the profit/(loss) attributable to the Company is as follows:

| Contracted concessional assets | Note 6. - Contracted concessional assets The detail of contracted concessional assets included in the heading ‘Contracted concessional assets’ as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:
Contracted concessional assets include fixed assets financed through project debt, related to service concession arrangements recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12, except for Palmucho, which is recorded in accordance with IAS 17, and PS10, PS20, Seville PV and Mini-Hydro which are recorded as property plant and equipment in accordance with IAS 16. Concessional assets recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12 are either intangible or financial assets. As of June 30, 2018, contracted concessional financial assets amount to $870,336 thousand ($936,004 thousand as of December 31, 2017). The decrease in the contracted concessional assets cost is primarily due to the lower value of assets denominated in euros since the exchange rate of the euro has dropped against the U.S. dollar since December 31, 2017 and to the payment received from Abengoa by Solana in March 2018 further to Abengoa´s obligation as EPC Contractor (see Note 11). The decrease has been partially offset by the impact of the application of IFRS 16, ´Leases´ from January 1, 2018 (see Note 2). Amortization and impairment amount includes the recognition of impairment provisions based on expected credit losses due to the application of IFRS 9, ´Financial instruments´ from January 1, 2018 (see Note 2). No other losses from impairment of contracted concessional assets were recorded during the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and during the year 2017. |

| Derivative financial instruments | Note 9. - Derivative financial instruments The breakdown of the fair value amount of the derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:
The derivatives are primarily interest rate cash-flow hedges. All are classified as non-current assets or non-current liabilities, as they hedge long-term financing agreements. These are classified as Level 2 (see Note 10). Additionally, the Company owns currency options with leading international financial institutions, which guarantee a minimum Euro-U.S. dollar exchange rates for the distributions expected from Spanish solar assets made in euros during the years 2018, 2019 and part of 2020. The net amount of the fair value of interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges transferred to the consolidated condensed income statement is a loss of $33,899 thousand for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 (loss of $34,265 thousand in the six-month period ended June 30, 2017). The after-tax results accumulated in equity in connection with derivatives designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 amount to a profit of $91,935 thousand and a profit of $80,968 thousand respectively. |

| Related parties | Note 11. - Related parties Details of balances with related parties as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are as follows:
Trade payables (current) primarily relate to payables for Operation and Maintenance services. Credit payables (non-current) primarily relate to project companies’ payables with partners accounted for as non-controlling interests in these consolidated financial statements and payables for Operation and Maintenance services. The operation and maintenance services received in some of the Spanish solar assets of the Company include a variable portion payable in the long term. On April 26, 2018, Atlantica Yield plc purchased from Abengoa the long-term operation and maintenance payable accrued for the period up to December 31, 2017, which was recorded for an amount of $57.3 million at the date of repayment. The Company paid $18.3 million for this extinguishment of debt and accounted for the difference of $39.0 million with the carrying amount of the debt as an income in the profit and loss statement. The transactions carried out by entities included in these consolidated condensed financial statements with related parties not included in the consolidation perimeter of Atlantica, primarily with Abengoa and with subsidiaries of Abengoa, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 have been as follows:
Services received primarily include operation and maintenance services received by some assets. The figures detailed in the table above do not include the compensation received from Abengoa in lieu of dividends from ACBH for $10.4 million, recorded as financial income in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017. In addition, Abengoa maintains a number of obligations under EPC, O&M and other contracts, as well as indemnities covering certain potential risks. Additionally, Abengoa represented that further to the accession to the restructuring agreement, Atlantica Yield would not be a guarantor of any obligation of Abengoa with respect to third parties and agreed to indemnify the Company for any penalty claimed by third parties resulting from any breach in such representations. The Company has contingent assets, which have not been recognized as of June 30, 2018, related to the obligations of Abengoa referred above, which result and amounts will depend on the occurrence of uncertain future events. In particular as of April 26, 2018 Abengoa agreed to pay Atlantica certain amounts subject to conditions which are beyond the control of the Company. As explained in Note 1, the Company signed a consent in November 2017, which has then been amended during the following months, in relation to the Solana and Mojave projects, which reduced the minimum ownership required by Abengoa in Atlantica Yield to 16%, subject to certain conditions precedent most of which were beyond the control of the Company, including several payments by Abengoa to Solana before December 2017 and May 2018. These payments for a total of $120 million were related to Abengoa’s obligations as EPC contractor in Solana and were used to repay Solana project debt ($95 million) and for a reserve to cover required additional repairs in the plant ($25 million). Additionally, Abengoa has recognized other obligations with Solana for $6.5 million per semester over 8.5 years starting in December 2018. Solana received $42.5 million in December 2017 and $77.5 million in March 2018. The $42.5 million collected in December 2017 and $52.5 million of the amount collected in March 2018 have been used to repay Solana project debt. The aforementioned amounts are based on the EPC Contract guarantee for liquidated damages considering the average production during the first three years of ramp-up period of the plant which is a service-concession arrangement under IFRIC 12 (intangible asset). For the aforementioned amounts, the Company reduced the value of the intangible asset since this amount was a variable consideration. In addition, the amortization of the plant is adjusted accordingly. The Company entered into a Financial Support Agreement on June 13, 2014 under which Abengoa agreed to maintain any guarantees and letters of credit that have been provided by it on behalf of or for the benefit of Atlantica Yield and its affiliates for a period of five years. As of June 30, 2018, the aforementioned guarantees amounted to $31 million. In the context of that agreement in July 2017, Atlantica replaced guarantees amounting to $112 million previously issued by Abengoa, out of which $55 million were canceled in June 2018. |

| Corporate debt | Note 14. - Corporate debt The breakdown of the corporate debt as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:
The repayment schedule for the corporate debt as of June 30, 2018 is as follows:
On November 17, 2014, the Company issued the Senior Notes due 2019 in an aggregate principal amount of $255,000 thousand (the “2019 Notes”). The 2019 Notes accrue annual interest of 7.00% payable semi-annually beginning on May 15, 2015 until their maturity date of November 15, 2019. On December 3, 2014, the Company entered into a credit facility of up to $125,000 thousand with Banco Santander, S.A., Bank of America, N.A., Citigroup Global Markets Limited, HSBC Bank plc and RBC Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners (the “Former Revolving Credit Facility” or ”Former RCF”). On December 22, 2014, the Company drew down $125,000 thousand under the Former RCF. Loans accrued interest at a rate per annum equal to: (A) for Eurodollar rate loans, LIBOR plus 2.75% and (B) for base rate loans, the highest of (i) the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight U.S. Federal funds transactions with members of the U.S. Federal Reserve System arranged by U.S. Federal funds brokers on such day plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (ii) the U.S. prime rate and (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, in any case, plus 1.75%. $8,000 thousand of the loans under the Former RCF were partially repaid on September 25, 2017 and for $63,000 thousand on December 27, 2017. The remaining $54,000 of nominal of the Former RCF has been entirely repaid on May 16, 2018 and the credit facility canceled. On February 10, 2017, the Company issued Senior Notes due 2022, 2023, 2024 (the “Note Issuance Facility”), in an aggregate principal amount of €275,000 thousand. The 2022 to 2024 Notes accrue annual interest, equal to the sum of (i) EURIBOR plus (ii) 4.90%, as determined by the Agent. Interest on the Notes will be payable in cash quarterly in arrears on each interest payment date. The Company will make each interest payment to the holders of record on each interest payment date. The interest rate on the Note Issuance Facility is fully hedged by two interest rate swaps contracted with Jefferies Financial Services, Inc. with effective date March 31, 2017 and maturity date December 31, 2022, resulting in the Company paying a net fixed interest rate of 5.5% on the Note Issuance Facility. Changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps have been recorded in the consolidated income statement. The Note Issuance Facility is a € denominated liability for which the Company applies net investment hedge accounting. When converted to US$ at US$/€ closing exchange rate, it contributes to reduce the impact in translation difference reserves generated in the equity of these consolidated financial statements by the conversion of the net assets of the Spanish solar assets into US$. On July 20, 2017, the Company signed a credit facility (the “Credit Facility 2017”) for up to €10 million, approximately $11.7 million, which is available in euros or US dollars. Amounts drawn accrue interest at a rate per year equal to EURIBOR plus 2.25% or LIBOR plus 2.25%, depending on the currency. As of December 31, 2017, the Company drew down the credit facility in full and used the entire proceeds to prepay a part of the Tranche A of the Credit Facility. The credit facility had an original maturity date of July 20, 2018 and therefore the amounts drawn down were classified as Current as of June 30, 2018. It has been renewed during the month of July 2018 and the new maturity date is July 20, 2019. On May 10, 2018, the Company entered into a $215 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and Royal Bank of Canada and Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as issuers of letters of credit. The Company has the option to increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility by up to $85 million to $300 million, subject to certain conditions being met. Amounts drawn down accrue interest at a rate per year equal to (A) for Eurodollar rate loans, LIBOR plus a percentage determined by reference to our leverage ratio, ranging between 1.60% and 2.25% and (B) for base rate loans, the highest of (i) the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight U.S. Federal funds transactions with members of the U.S. Federal Reserve System arranged by U.S. Federal funds brokers on such day plus ½ of 1.00%, (ii) the U.S. prime rate and (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, in any case, plus a percentage determined by reference to the leverage ratio of the Company, ranging between 0.60% and 1.00%. Letters of credit may be issued using up to $70 million of the Revolving Credit Facility. The maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility is December 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had drawn down an amount of $58 million (net of debt issuance costs). Current corporate debt corresponds mainly to the accrued interest on the Notes and to the amount of the 2017 Credit Facility. |

| Project debt [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Project debt | Note 15. - Project debt The main purpose of the Company is the long-term ownership and management of contracted concessional assets, such as renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission line and water assets, which are financed through project debt. This note shows the project debt linked to the contracted concessional assets included in Note 6 of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements. Project debt is generally used to finance contracted assets, exclusively using as guarantee the assets and cash flows of the company or group of companies carrying out the activities financed. In most of the cases, the assets and/or contracts are set up as guarantee to ensure the repayment of the related financing. Compared with corporate debt, project debt has certain key advantages, including a greater leverage and a clearly defined risk profile. The detail of Project debt of both non-current and current liabilities as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows:
The decrease in total project debt is primarily due to contractual payments of debt for the period, the partial repayment of Solana debt using the indemnity received from Abengoa in March 2018 for $52.5 million (see Note 11), the lower value of debts denominated in foreign currencies since their exchange rate has decreased against the U.S. dollars since December 31, 2017 and to the impact of the application of IFRS 9, ´Financial instruments´ from January 1, 2018 (see Note 2). Additionally, during the second quarter of 2018, the Company refinanced debts of Helios 1/2 and Helioenergy 1/2 on May 18, 2018 and June 26, 2018 respectively. The terms of the new debts are not substantially different from the original debts refinanced and therefore the exchange of debts instruments does not qualify for an extinguishment of the original debts under IFRS 9, ´Financial instruments´. When there is a refinancing with a non-substantial modification of the original debt, there is a gain or loss recorded in the income statement. This gain or loss is equal to the difference between the present value of the cash flows under the original terms of the former financing and the present value of the cash flows under the new financing, discounted both at the original effective interest rate. In this respect, the Company recorded a $36.6 million financial income in the profit and loss statement of the consolidated condensed financial statements (see Note 19). The repayment schedule for Project debt in accordance with the financing arrangements, as of June 30, 2018 is as follows and is consistent with the projected cash flows of the related projects:

| Grants and other liabilities | Note 16. - Grants and other liabilities
As of June 30, 2018, the amount recorded in Grants corresponds primarily to the ITC Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to Solana and Mojave for a total amount of $755 million ($771 million as of December 31, 2017), which was primarily used to fully repay the Solana and Mojave short term tranche of the loan with the Federal Financing Bank. The amount recorded in Grants as a liability is progressively recorded as other income over the useful life of the asset. The remaining balance of the “Grants” account corresponds to loans with interest rates below market rates for Solana and Mojave for a total amount of $426 million ($452 million as of December 31, 2017). Loans with the Federal Financing Bank guaranteed by the Department of Energy for these projects bear interest at a rate below market rates for these types of projects and terms. The difference between proceeds received from these loans and its fair value, is initially recorded as “Grants” in the consolidated statement of financial position, and subsequently recorded in “Other operating income” starting at the entry into operation of the plants. Total amount of income for these two types of grants for Solana and Mojave is $29.6 million and $29.8 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Other liabilities mainly relate to the investment from Liberty Interactive Corporation (‘Liberty’) made on October 2, 2013 for an amount of $300 million. The investment was made in class A shares of Arizona Solar Holding, the holding of Solana Solar plant in the United States. Such investment was made in a tax equity partnership which permits the partners to have certain tax benefits such as accelerated depreciation and ITC. The investment is recorded as a liability for a total amount of $363 million as of June 30, 2018 ($352 million as of December 31, 2017). Additionally, other liabilities include $57 million of finance lease liabilities, further to the application of IFRS 16, Leases from January 1, 2018 (see Note 2). |

Financial income from loans and credits primarily includes a non-monetary financial income of $36.6 million resulting from the refinancing of the debts of Helios 1&2 and Helioenergy 1&2 in the second quarter of 2018 (see Note 15). Interests from other debts are primarily interests on the notes issued by ATS, ATN, ATN2, Atlantica Yield and Solaben Luxembourg and interests related to the investment from Liberty (see Note 16). Losses from interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges correspond primarily to transfers from equity to financial expense when the hedged item is impacting the consolidated condensed income statement. Other net financial income and expenses The following table sets out ‘Other net financial income and expenses” for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, and 2017:
According to the agreement reached with Abengoa in the third quarter of 2016, Abengoa acknowledged that Atlantica Yield was the legal owner of the dividends declared on February 24, 2017 and retained from Abengoa amounting to $10.4 million. As a result, the Company recorded $10.4 million as Other financial income in accordance with the accounting treatment previously given to the ACBH dividend. |

| Basis of preparation | The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed interim financial statements represent the consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company entered into an agreement with Abengoa on June 13, 2014 (the “ROFO Agreement”), as amended and restated on December 9, 2014, that provides the Company with a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of Abengoa’s contracted renewable energy, efficient natural gas, electric transmission or water assets in operation and located in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Brazil, Colombia and the European Union, as well as four assets in selected countries in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. The Company elected to account for the assets acquisitions under the ROFO Agreement using the Predecessor values as long as Abengoa had control over the Company, given that these were transactions between entities under common control. Any difference between the consideration given and the aggregate book value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired entities as of the date of the transaction has been reflected as an adjustment to equity. Abengoa has not had control over the Company since December 31, 2015. Therefore, any acquisition from Abengoa is accounted for in the consolidated accounts of Atlantica Yield since December 31, 2015, in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. The Company’s annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, were approved by the Board of Directors on February 27, 2018. These consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. In accordance with IAS 34, interim financial information is prepared solely in order to update the most recent annual consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company, placing emphasis on new activities, occurrences and circumstances that have taken place during the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and not duplicating the information previously published in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. Therefore, the consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information that would be required in complete consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the IFRS-IASB (“International Financial Reporting Standards-International Accounting Standards Board”). In view of the above, for an adequate understanding of the information, these consolidated condensed interim financial statements must be read together with Atlantica’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the 2017 20-F. In determining the information to be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements, Atlantica, in accordance with IAS 34, has taken into account its materiality in relation to the consolidated condensed interim financial statements. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency. Amounts included in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements are all expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Application of new accounting standards
The applications of these amendments have not had any material impact on these consolidated condensed interim financial statements. In relation to IFRS 15, IFRS 9 and IFRS 16, the Company performed following analysis: IFRS 15 ‘Revenues from contracts with Customers’ In May 2014, the IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) published IFRS 15 “Recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. This Standard brings together all the applicable requirements and replaces the current standards for recognizing revenue: IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Program, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers and SIC-31 Revenue—Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. The new requirements may lead to changes in the current revenue profile, since the Standard’s main principle is that the Company must recognize its revenue in accordance with the transfer of goods or services to the customers in an amount which reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The model laid out by the Standard is structured in five steps:
Contracted concessional assets and price purchase agreements (PPAs) include fixed assets financed through project debt, related to service concession arrangements recorded in accordance with International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee 12 (“IFRIC 12”), except for Palmucho, which is recorded in accordance with IAS 17 and PS10, PS20 and Seville PV, which are recorded as tangible assets in accordance with IAS 16. The infrastructures accounted for by the Company as concessions are related to the activities concerning electric transmission lines, solar electricity generation plants, efficient natural gas plants, wind farms and water plants. Currently, assets recorded in accordance with IFRIC 12 are classified as intangible assets or as financial assets, depending on the nature of the payment entitlements established in the contracts. According to IFRS 15, the Company should assess the goods and services promised in the contracts with the customers and shall identify as a performance obligation each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or a bundle of goods or services). In the case of contracts related to financial assets, the Company has identified two performance obligations (construction and operation of the asset). The contracts state that each service (construction and operation) has its own transaction price. For this reason, both performance obligations are separately identifiable in the context of the contract. The Company must allocate the total consideration to be received by the contract to each performance obligation. As mentioned above, the different services performed have been identified as two different performance obligations (construction and operation). Each performance obligation has its own transaction price stated in the contract. Such transaction prices are agreed in the contract by the parties in an orderly transaction, with no interrelation between both transaction prices and therefore correspond to the fair value of the goods and services provided in each case. As a result, for IFRS 15 purposes, the total transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation in accordance with the two transaction prices stated within the contract, as they represent the respective fair values of the identified performance obligations. For the assets classified as intangible assets, the Company has identified the same performance obligations, (construction and operation), but in this case the consideration received by the Company for the construction services is a license. The grantor makes a non-cash payment for the construction services by giving the operator an intangible asset. When allocating fair value for IFRS 15 purposes, the Company will recognize as revenue for the first performance obligation the fair value of the construction services, and the amount corresponding to the sales of energy as the fair value of second performance obligation (operation). Additionally, in both cases, the services are satisfied over time. All the concessional assets of the Company are in operation and the Company satisfies the performance obligations and recognizes revenue over time. The same conclusion applies to concessional assets that are classified as tangible assets or leases. IFRS 15 also incorporates specific criteria to determine which costs relating to a contract should be capitalized by distinguishing between incremental costs of obtaining a contract and costs associated with fulfilling a contract. No significant costs of obtaining a contract or compliance (other than those that are already capitalized) have been identified. As the practice for revenue recognition applied until December 31, 2017, is consistent with the analysis above under IFRS 15, the Company considers that the adoption of this standard has no impact in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Also, the Company adopted IFRS 15 applying the full retrospective method to each prior reporting period presented, but without changes in the comparative reporting periods as the adoption of the standard has no effect in the financial statements. IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments issued on 24 July 2014 is the IASB’s replacement of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, introduces new rules for hedge accounting and a new impairment model for financial assets. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2018, including the new requirements for hedge accounting. The Company adopted retrospectively without re-expressing comparative periods. The analysis performed by the Company is as follows:
a) Financial assets IFRS 9 classifies all financial assets that are currently in the scope of IAS 39 into two categories: amortized cost and fair value. Where assets are measured at fair value, gains and losses are either recognized entirely in profit or loss (fair value through profit or loss, “FVTPL”), or recognized in other comprehensive income (fair value through other comprehensive income, “FVTOCI”). The new guidance has no significant impact on the classification and measurement of the financial assets of the Company as the vast majority of financial assets (except for derivatives) are currently measured at amortized cost, and meet the conditions for classification at amortized cost under IFRS 9. As a result, the Company maintained this classification. b) Financial liabilities: IFRS 9 does not change the basic accounting model for financial liabilities under IAS 39. Two measurement categories continue to exist: FVTPL and amortized cost. Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at FVTPL, and all other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost unless the fair value option is applied. As a result, the Company concluded that there is no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
The impact of applying IFRS 9 to the condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 is not significant. IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ The IASB issued a new lease accounting standard, IFRS 16, in January 2016, which requires the recognition of lease contracts on the consolidated statement of financial position. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee. Instead all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applying IAS 17. Leases are ‘capitalized’ by recognizing the present value of the lease payments and showing them either as lease assets (right-of-use of assets) or together with property, plant and equipment. If lease payments are made over time, a company also recognizes a financial liability representing its obligation to make future lease payments. In the income statement, IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating lease expense for those leases applying IAS 17, with a depreciation charge for the lease asset (included within operating expenses) and an interest expense on the lease liability (included within finance expenses). IFRS 16 also impacts the presentation of cash flows related to former off-balance sheet leases. The Company performed its assessment of the impact on its consolidated financial statements. The most significant impact identified is that the Company recognizes new assets and liabilities for its existing operating leases of land rights, buildings, offices and equipment. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted for entities that apply IFRS 15 at or before the date of initial application of IFRS 16. The Company decided to early adopt the standard as of January 1, 2018. An entity shall apply this standard using one of the following two methods: full retrospectively approach or a modified retrospective approach. The Company has chosen the latter and accounted for assets as an amount equal to liability at the date of initial application. The impact on the opening balance sheet of these consolidated financial statements is shown in the table below. The impact of applying IFRS 16 to the condensed interim financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 is not significant. Summary of adjustments arising from application of IFRS 9 and IFRS 16 as of December 31, 2017
(*) The expected credit losses provision only applies to the concessional assets recorded as financial assets for an amount before provision of $936,004 thousand as of December 31, 2017 (see Note 6).
The Company does not anticipate any significant impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements derived from the application of the new standards and amendments that will be effective for annual periods beginning after June 30, 2018, although it is currently still in the process of evaluating such application. |

| Use of estimates | Use of estimates Some of the accounting policies applied require the application of significant judgment by management to select the appropriate assumptions to determine these estimates. These assumptions and estimates are based on the Company´s historical experience, advice from experienced consultants, forecasts and other circumstances and expectations as of the close of the financial period. The assessment is considered in relation to the global economic situation of the industries and regions where the Company operates, taking into account future development of our businesses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty; therefore, actual results could materially differ from the estimates and assumptions used. In such cases, the carrying values of assets and liabilities are adjusted. The most critical accounting policies, which reflect significant management estimates and judgment to determine amounts in these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, are as follows:
As of the date of preparation of these consolidated condensed interim financial statements, no relevant changes in the estimates made are anticipated and, therefore, no significant changes in the value of the assets and liabilities recognized at June 30, 2018 are expected. Although these estimates and assumptions are being made using all available facts and circumstances, it is possible that future events may require management to amend such estimates and assumptions in future periods. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized prospectively, in accordance with IAS 8, in the consolidated income statement of the period in which the change occurs. |
