NuGen Capital Management to Invest $100MM in Solar Energy Projects

NuGen Capital Management, LLC (NuGen), a national leader in energy development and capital solutions, announced it is making an additional investment of $100 million into near-term and operating solar and storage projects across the United States.

Powered by its team’s cross-sector expertise in energy solutions, real estate, finance and more, NuGen is equipped to handle every phase of clean energy projects, including financing, tax credit strategies, development, construction, operation and management. The company is currently seeking partners across the energy ecosystem – including developers, landowners, project owners and operators, or others – to purchase projects that deliver long-term value in their respective communities.

“Since our founding in 2010, NuGen’s mission has been to accelerate America’s energy transition with impactful investment solutions and innovative asset strategies that unlock reliable and affordable new energy sources,” said Laura Frazier, NuGen’s Managing Director, Business Development & Strategy. “When we invest in a project, we take pride in forging full-service, always-on relationships with our partners to ensure the unique needs of every project and every customer are being met. We look forward to building on our strong network of partners with this significant level of investment.”

NuGen currently manages more than $250 million in investments, comprising a diverse portfolio of solar, storage, real estate and electric mobility projects across the country. These projects reduce strain on local utilities and provide municipalities, school districts, businesses and communities with reliable, affordable power.

“When NuGen buys or develops a project, it’s because we believe in its long-term value. That’s why we own and operate all the projects in our portfolio, and it’s why we’ve never sold a project to date,” said Aaron Rust, NuGen’s Managing Director, Renewable Infrastructure. “Our Operations & Asset Management teams have a proven approach to stabilizing distressed projects, and we are ready to bring our approach to more projects in more communities across the Northeast and around the country.”

NuGen’s investment solutions range from project financing, tax credits, divestment opportunities, equity investments and project acquisitions. With extensive experience working at or with global investment firms, infrastructure developers and government institutions, NuGen offers custom-built financing options that best meet its partners’ goals.

“As project owners and operators in addition to investors, we have a unique bird’s-eye perspective on what’s needed to bring complex projects to fruition, and our self-funded operation allows us to offer direct, immediate financial support to move quickly and effectively,” said Nicole Verdi, NuGen’sManaging Director, Operations, Finance & Legal. “Our message right now is simple: If you’re seeking capital to reach your project’s next stage, or if you’re looking to sell your operating project to a nimble, trusted, proven, mission-driven partner, our team at NuGen wants to hear from you.”

Aspen Power Acquires Four-Megawatt New York Solar Project

Aspen Power has acquired a four-megawatt direct current (MWdc) community solar project from High Peaks Solar. The company, a leading distributed generation platform dedicated to building the clean energy future, expects the project to generate up to 5.3 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) in its first year, enough to power 1,477 homes annually. The acquisition is part of a series of deals Aspen Power announced spanning four states.

The project, located in the New York State Electric and Gas (NYSEG) utility territory, will participate in New York’s Value of Distributed Energy Resources (VDER) program, which compensates renewable energy projects for the benefits they provide to the electric grid, while giving subscribers a discount on prevailing utility rates.

“Finalizing this agreement with High Peaks Solar reflects both the strength of our collaboration and the resilience of the renewable energy market,” said Dan Gulick, Executive Vice President, Community Solar, Aspen Power. “Even in a challenging and dynamic political and regulatory environment, well-structured solar transactions remain achievable, delivering measurable value to communities and advancing the state’s clean energy objectives,” he added.

“High Peaks Solar is pleased to work with Aspen Power on this deal. Their experience has made this project an early success as we move into construction, and I am confident that they will ensure the site is taken care of for many years to come. I would like to thank all of the folks involved in getting the project shovel ready,” said Kevin Bailey, CEO, High Peaks Solar.

This collaboration leverages High Peaks Solar’s development expertise and Aspen Power’s operational and financial capabilities to bring new community solar capacity online. Together, the companies are ensuring these assets deliver reliable performance, long-term economic value, and measurable environmental benefits to New York residents.
