Pursuant to Rule 461(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Abengoa Yield plc (the “Company”) respectfully requests that the effective date for the Registration Statement referred to above be accelerated so that it will be declared effective as of 4:00 p.m. on June 12, 2014, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

Cohen of Linklaters LLP, counsel to the Company, at (212) 903-9014 as soon as possible as to the time the Registration Statement has been declared effective pursuant to this acceleration request.

The Company hereby acknowledges that:

    the action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
