US-based Swift Current Energy has received financing from ING Capital for its 266MWdc (195MWac) Tres Bahias Solar project.

Located in southeast Texas, the solar facility is currently in the construction phase and is expected to come online by the end of 2023.

ING Americas renewables and power managing director and head Sven Wellock said: “We’re delighted to build on our relationship with Swift Current Energy and are proud to lead the financing of the Tres Bahias Solar project.

“This latest project from Swift Current is yet another important milestone for the US as we continue the transition to a sustainable and secure energy network.”

Swift Current, which is developing the project, will also be its long-term owner and operator.

ING served as the sole lead arranger, book-runner and green loan structuring agent for the transaction.
