Origis Energy Closes $900 Million Corporate Facility
Origis Energy, one of America's leading renewable energy platforms, announced the closing of a $900 million Corporate Facility (the "Facility"), comprising $650 million of funded credit facilities and a $250 million Letter of Credit ("LC") Facility. The Facility provides Origis with substantial liquidity to accelerate its near-term project pipeline and support its growth strategy of bringing cost-effective, reliable, and customer-centered energy projects online.
First Citizens Bank, ING Capital LLC, Natixis, and Santander served as Joint Bookrunners and Coordinating Lead Arrangers. EIG structured and acted as sole purchaser of notes issued as part of the transaction. First Citizens Bank is serving as Administrative Agent and HSBC as Collateral Agent and Coordinating Lead Arranger. Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi, and MUFG are serving as Coordinating Lead Arrangers, Regions Capital Markets as Joint Lead Arranger, and Celtic Bank and TD Bank as participating lenders in the Facility. Latham & Watkins and Milbank served as Borrower's and Lenders' Counsels, respectively.
Proceeds from the Facility will be deployed to progress the development of more than 5 GW of highly advanced projects across Origis' portfolio, in addition to supporting the continued development of its total 20 GW+ pipeline. The sector continues to experience unprecedented electricity demand growth from AI innovation, manufacturing, and electrification, and Origis remains exceptionally well-positioned to deliver cost-effective solar and battery storage solutions to its utility and commercial customers.
"This facility marks a defining moment in Origis' transformation into a leading developer-owner-operator of solar and storage infrastructure. It reflects the operational and financial milestones our team has delivered over the past 24 months — including quadrupling our operating capacity — and the world-class group of financial institutions in this syndicate is a testament to the scale and execution we've achieved. This capital positions us to go further, advancing more than 5 GW of highly advanced pipeline while continuing to develop our broader portfolio. The confidence shown by all our financial partners is a strong endorsement of our strategy and our people, and we are grateful for their partnership."
