By GlobalDataExus Renewables North America president and CEO Jim Spencer stated: “Securing this financing across two distinct portfolios demonstrates the strength of our platform and the market’s confidence in our execution capabilities.
“From desert solar farms powering data centres to repowered wind turbines in Pennsylvania, we’re building the infrastructure that will define America’s energy future.”
In Pennsylvania, Exus finalised $158.6m for its Keystone wind portfolio, which includes the Twin Ridges (139MW) and Patton (30MW) wind projects.
KeyBanc Capital Markets was the coordinating lead arranger, alongside Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and Societe Generale as joint lead arrangers.
This financing facilitates the recent repowering of Twin Ridges, which attained its repowering commercial operation date in 2024.
The portfolio is supported by a variety of offtake agreements, with Vitol as the primary counterparty for PPAs and renewable energy certificates across the assets.
