"The growth opportunities in transmission and distribution continue to drive investor interest in that space," said Ron Blagg, Allegiance Capital Vice President. "We see this only increasing in the United States for the next several years as the aging electric grid and government-enforced reliability and safety standards continue to create need for expert maintenance services."

Allegiance Capital has created a specialized practice dedicated to energy infrastructure with a focus on transmission and distribution. The firm is currently involved in several engagements in the transmission and distribution space, including three wind farms with cumulative generating capacity of more than 650 megawatts. Earlier this year Allegiance Capital facilitated Huntsman Gay's strategic investment in T&D Solutions, a power line maintenance services company serving the southern United States.

The investment by Huntsman Gay Global Capital will enable T&D Solutions and E&R, Inc. to capture more of the outsourced services market as utilities increasingly seek experienced, reputable partners.
