MUFG and Nomura acted as co-ordinating lead arrangers and bookrunners, with MUFG also serving as the administrative agent.
The project benefits from two ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) West-settled power purchase agreements for 65% of its energy output and renewable energy certificates (RECs).
The remaining 35% of energy will be sold in the merchant ERCOT market.
Greenalia CEO Manuel Garcia stated: “This transaction is a major step for Greenalia’s US expansion. With the help of MUFG and Nomura, we are on track to reach 1GW of operational projects by 2026.”
Misae II has secured a fixed-price production tax credit transfer agreement and a separate fixed-price agreement for 40% of its RECs.
In a related development, Adapture Renewables has secured $321m in financing from MUFG for the construction of the 441MW Titanium solar portfolio in the US.
The financing is structured as a construction loan and a tax credit bridge loan. The Titanium portfolio spans three sites in Arkansas and Illinois, expected to power 71,000 homes annually.
Construction of the first site, the Cooks Mill project, commenced in September 2024 and will be operational by early 2026.
