ENGIE North America partners with Hannon Armstrong to secure $172 million of investment for distributed solar-plus-storage portfolio

HOUSTON, Texas and ANNAPOLIS, Md. – ENGIE North America and Hannon Armstrong (NYSE:HASI), a leading investor in climate change solutions, announce a new partnership to jointly invest in a Distributed Generation (DG) portfolio of solar and solar-plus-storage assets located across the United States.

 

The portfolio is comprised of a diversified set of community solar and commercial & industrial (C&I) ground-mounted, carport and rooftop solar and solar-plus-storage projects (around 70 MW in total) located across the U.S., including Massachusetts, Illinois, Vermont, California, Texas, and Arizona.  

“ENGIE is pleased to partner with Hannon Armstrong on this portfolio, which further demonstrates ENGIE’s leadership and strong commitment to climate action goals towards its clients. This new partnership reinforces the ambitions of our organizations,” said Gwenaëlle Avice-Huet, Executive Vice President, in charge of the Renewable and Hydrogen Business Units France, responsible for the Global Renewable Business Line and CEO of the North America Business Unit. “This program signals further forward momentum as we work alongside our customers towards a carbon neutral future.” 

“We are delighted to expand our programmatic relationship with ENGIE with this latest agreement,” said Hannon Armstrong Chairman and CEO Jeffrey W. Eckel. “This partnership highlights one of the key strengths of our historic core value proposition to clients of executing on scalable investment solutions for smaller, distributed clean energy projects that are essential to a climate-positive future.” 

The agreement will allow ENGIE to rely on committed capital by Hannon Armstrong through December 31, 2021 to finance DG assets across the U.S. ENGIE will retain partial ownership and provide development, construction, operational, asset management, and administrative services. Hannon Armstrong will provide capital to ENGIE through a unique structure that will bring efficiency to a forward flow of projects, leveraging tax equity financing through an upper-tier arrangement with Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS). Hannon Armstrong’s collaboration with Morgan Stanley on this portfolio represents an expansion of the firms’ relationship in recognition of Morgan Stanley becoming the first U.S. bank to commit to disclosing portfolio greenhouse gas emissions and backing the push toward unified measurement of financed emissions via the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF). 

Distributed generation represents an important piece of ENGIE’s U.S. solar-plus-storage market strategy as it represents a sizable share of the overall non-residential solar-plus-storage market. Distributed clean energy generation, including the community solar projects included in the portfolio, foster access to renewable energy and is a key component of the clean energy targets and ambitions of cities, communities, corporate and utility customers. ENGIE currently owns and operates approximately 300 MW of DG solar assets.

Niagara Bottling, LLC Partners with ENGIE North America to Make Clear Statement on Sustainability

December 03, 2020 – Houston, TX. Niagara Bottling LLC today announced a retail renewable energy agreement with ENGIE Resources from ENGIE North America’s Prairie Hill and Live Oak wind projects in Texas. The contract goes through 2031. Niagara Bottling will purchase 100% of its electricity, approximately 167,000 MWh annually, from the Prairie Hill and Live Oak wind projects for its Texas bottling operations. Niagara locations across Texas produce tea, bottled water and vitamin-enhanced water beverages.

 

The renewable energy in this agreement represents environmental benefits equal to either the removal of more than 24,000 passenger motor vehicles each year from highways over the span of the contract, or the elimination of 123 million pounds of coal burned each year.

Niagara will also achieve budget certainty throughout the term of this agreement with a fixed price structure in a simple retail contract with flexible terms.

“As a family owned company, our priority is the health of our team members, our communities and our environment,” said Andrew Peykoff II, President and CEO of Niagara Bottling. “We are committed to responsible resource usage and integrating sustainability into every aspect of our business. ENGIE plays an important role to help us continuously innovate and reduce our carbon footprint.”

“Niagara Bottling is a true success story, built on values we share including integrity and efficiency,” said Sayun Sukduang, Chief Supply Officer for ENGIE North America. “We’re proud to provide a solution that meets all of Niagara’s energy, environmental and economic criteria.”

ENGIE North America is the developer, owner, and operator of the Prairie Hill and Live Oak wind projects.  Prairie Hill is a 300 MW project that is located in Limestone and McLennan counites in Texas. Live Oak (which is owned in partnership with an affiliate of John Laing Group plc) is a 200 MW project that is located near San Angelo, Texas.  Both projects contribute to ENGIE’s rapid expansion in renewables, with an ambition to build approximately 9,000 MW of new renewable energy projects from 2019-2021 globally. ENGIE is building 2 GW of new renewable energy projects in North America this year and has an additional 10,000 MW of wind and solar projects in its broader development pipeline in the U.S. and Canada.

Renewable Energy Giants EDPR and ENGIE launch major Offshore Wind player in the US

November 09, 2020 – Boston, MA EDP Renewables and ENGIE have combined their existing and planned offshore wind efforts to form a new company, Ocean Winds (OW), that is one of the largest “pure” offshore wind development enterprises in the world.

 

EDP Renewables and ENGIE have combined their existing and planned offshore wind efforts to form a new company, Ocean Winds (OW), that is one of the largest “pure” offshore wind development enterprises in the world.  

After launching OW in Europe, EDP Renewables and ENGIE are now unveiling the U.S. arm of this new company: OW North America.

“OW will be a major element in creating the new clean, sustainable, and prosperous economy that Americans are demanding and OW North America can help to build that future” said OW CEO Spyros Martinis, adding, “OW North America from Day One is in the business of developing and delivering real offshore wind projects.”  

Regulators around the world, including U.S. authorities, have approved the merger of EDPR and ENGIE’s offshore wind businesses allowing OW to begin life with 5.5 GW of committed offshore assets starting with a total of 1.5 GW under construction and 4.0 GW under development, with the target of reaching 5 to 7 GW of projects in operation or under construction and 5 to 10 GW under advanced development by the middle of this decade. 

OW North America starts its life in a strong position in the highly attractive US renewable energy market on both the East and West Coasts. 

OW North America is a 50 percent owner of Mayflower Wind, a company which was successful in a state-sponsored competive auction which resulted in contracts to deliver 804 Megawatts (MW) of offshore wind energy to the Massachusetts utilities and their customers by the middle of this decade.  Mayflower Wind’s federal lease area, awarded in December 2018, has the potential to reach over 1600 MW. In addition, OW North America is a partner in the Redwood Coast floating offshore wind project, building on its experience developing floating projects in Europe, in particular Windfloat Atlantic – a fully operational floating offshore wind farm that is supplying clean affordable energy to the electricity customers of Portugal. OW will fill EDPR’s role in the Redwood Coast public-private consortium committed to developing an offshore wind project utilizing floating platform technology off the coast of Humboldt County in Northern California. The project’s customers will include consortium member Redwood Coast Energy Authority, a community choice aggregator established by local governments in Humboldt County.   

###

About OW 

OW is a 50:50 offshore wind joint-venture, owned and created by EDPR and ENGIE in 2019. Both companies believe that offshore wind energy is becoming an essential part of the global energy transition, leading to the sector’s rapid growth and increased competitiveness. That is why they have included all their existing and pipeline offshore portfolio in the new company. 

OW has a strategic advantage and is well positioned to play a leading role in the offshore market. EDPR and ENGIE are combining their offshore wind assets and project pipeline in OW, starting with a total of 1.5 GW under construction and 4.0 GW under development, with the target of reaching 5 to 7 GW of projects in operation or under construction and 5 to 10 GW under advanced development by 2025. OW primarily targets markets in Europe, the United States and selected geographies in Asia, from where most of the growth is expected to come.

ENGIE Award of Guam Power Authority Phase III Renewable Energy Projects Upheld by Guam’s Public Auditor

September 28, 2020 – Hagåtña, Guam – In a win for Guam’s clean energy goals, the Office of Public Accountability (OPA) upheld the power utility’s award of its Phase III Renewable Energy Project to ENGIE. The October 2019 award withstood three separate challenges by a single losing bidder, GlidePath Marianas Operations, Inc., a Chicago-based company that acquired the Dandan solar plant.

 

Luis F. Birolini, Head of Distributed Renewables for ENGIE North America said, “In its decision, the Public Auditor confirmed that ENGIE’s bid met the requirements set forth in Guam Power Authority’s Invitation for Bid (IFB) and was the lowest responsive bid for both sites. The Public Auditor held, ‘GlidePath’s failure to understand the requirements of the IFB did not affect the ability of any other bidder to correctly understand the requirements of the IFB and submit competing bids that conformed to the IFB’s requirements.’”

ENGIE, an international energy group and global leader in low-carbon energy and services, won the bid for the Phase III projects on the two sites, Naval Base Guam and South Finegayan in October 2019. These systems will deliver around 85GWh of clean dispatchable energy annually and will be tied directly to the utility grid for the people of Guam. As the low bidder, ENGIE’s system also ensures the highest savings to GPA and the Guam ratepayers.

The procurement is the third phase in a series of renewable energy projects by GPA and will include PV (solar) plus battery storage technology that will help power the grid at night. ENGIE’s design and engineering process for the Phase III project involved technical teams from the U.S., France, India, and Italy, with these design and construction leads meeting multiple times on Guam with the local engineering and construction community in order to submit a proposal utilizing the local workforce here on Guam.

After the initial award to ENGIE, GlidePath filed three appeals, all of which were rejected by GPA. GlidePath subsequently appealed to the Office of the Public Accountability. The GlidePath appeals have delayed the Phase III project by 10 months.

ENGIE signs partnership with Hannon Armstrong for 2.3 GW Renewables portfolio in the US

July 2, 2020 – Houston, TX – ENGIE announces the signing of an agreement to sell 49% equity interest in a 2.3 GW US renewables portfolio to Hannon Armstrong (NYSE:HASI), a leading investor in climate change solutions. ENGIE will retain a controlling share in the portfolio and continue to manage the assets. On commissioning, this 2.3 gigawatts (GW) portfolio that comprises 1.8 GW of onshore wind and 0.5GW of solar photovoltaic (PV) projects, will represent a major milestone in achieving ENGIE’s goal of commissioning 9 GW additional renewable capacity by 2021.

 

“The U.S. is a key growth market for our renewables business, where we have a strong pipeline of opportunities and a solid development and operational platform to grow from. We are delighted to have partnered with Hannon Armstrong, a company solely dedicated to investments in climate change solutions,” said Gwenaëlle Avice-Huet, Executive Vice-President responsible for ENGIE Renewables business line and CEO of ENGIE North America.

“We have a shared mission to accelerate to the rapid adoption of climate change solutions, and we are pleased to partner with ENGIE once again to that end. This investment adds significant scale and diversity to our portfolio,” said Hannon Armstrong Chairman and CEO Jeffrey W. Eckel.

Under the agreement, Hannon Armstrong will take immediate ownership of 49% of 663 megawatts (MW) of commissioned wind projects. The remaining 1.6 GW of projects, currently under construction, will be transferred into the partnership upon commissioning. In line with its majority ownership, ENGIE will continue to consolidate the projects in its accounts.

In April 2020, ENGIE secured US$1.6 billion tax equity commitments, bringing the total tax equity commitments for the portfolio to almost US$2 billion. The size of the portfolio and the magnitude of its tax equity financing – the largest ever in the US – demonstrates ENGIE’s successful development in this market. Tax equity financing is the traditional structure used in the United States to support the development of renewable projects.

The portfolio comprises 13 projects (9 onshore wind projects and 4 solar), located in key markets in the United States, including the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), PJM Interconnection (PJM), the Southwest Power Pool (SPP) and PJM Interconnection (PJM).
