On.Energy, a power asset owner and end-to-end integrator of battery energy storage projects, closed construction credit facilities provided by Pathward and BridgePeak Energy Capital to build its 160 MWh Palo de Agua battery storage portfolio across the state of Texas. This new financing will allow On.Energy to accelerate its U.S. business growth.
“In less than 12 months, we have managed to structure project finance credit solutions for more than 240 MWh, deploying critical infrastructure to one of the country’s most volatile power markets,” Alan Cooper, CEO of On.Energy, said. “This follow-on to the currently operating Palo Verde portfolio triples our installed and in-construction asset base across the United States. Taken together with a doubling of our integration revenues from 2023 to 2024, we couldn’t be more excited about the dynamic capital asset platform we have created. None of this would be possible without these best-in-class partners: Pathward and BridgePeak.”
“Texas reached a milestone in 2024, marking the first time that solar power generated more electricity than coal in the state, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis. As Texas continues its prolific energy transition, On.Energy is providing the solutions to ensure grid reliance and resilience,” Christopher Soupal, divisional president and revenue lending officer of Pathward, said. “Pathward’s multi-project construction facility with On.Energy is another example of our commitment to the U.S. renewable energy sector, and we are proud to be their lending partner.”
“We continue to identify and partner with the best-in-class developers and Independent Power Producers in each technology and sub-market across the U.S.,” Shawn Andrews, CEO of BridgePeak, said. “The facility with On.Energy, and the pipeline of follow-on projects, highlights the effectiveness of our approach to developing deep relationships with the companies changing the energy sector.”
