The projects are part of Intersect Power’s late-stage portfolio, which amounts to 2.2GW of capacity with 1.4GWh of storage.

Intersect Power CEO Sheldon Kimber said: “These closings culminate a multi-year process raising more than $6bn to build out one of the largest solar and storage portfolios our country has seen to date, which serves as a platform for future growth into green hydrogen and other decarbonisation technologies.

“The strength of our partnerships and collective teams’ determination further validates our path to decarbonise the hard-to-reach corners of the economy.”

The company said that the transactions represent construction financing, tax equity and operational letters of credit (LoCs), as well as a portion of previously announced portfolio level term debt with partners.

For nearly $1.6bn in construction financing, MUFG and Santander served as co-lead arrangers while NORD/LB, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Helaba, CoBank, Bank of America and Zions Bancorporation served as joint lead arrangers.

The operational LoCs for the Oberon I and II and Lumina II projects were provided by CoBank ACB.
