NEW YORK, Feb. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Radial Power announced today that it has closed on $225 million in debt financing from ATLAS SP Partners ("ATLAS SP") to support Radial Power's robust pipeline and operating platform of distributed generation projects, encompassing both asset- and portfolio-level, turnkey integrated commercial & industrial (C&I) and community solar solutions for real estate customers. The transaction represents Radial Power's inaugural portfolio-level debt financing.

This debt facility, alongside Radial Power's previously announced tax equity financing from Bank of America, will help fund the initial development and installation of more than 100 megawatts of C&I and community solar projects nationally. It will also enable efficient access to the liquid ABS markets, supporting potential future securitizations.

This financing will support Radial Power's robust pipeline of low-cost, low-carbon clean energy solutions that enable real estate companies to meet their short- and long-term ESG and sustainability goals," said John M. King, Chief Financial Officer of Radial Power. "Our national portfolio of best-in-class distributed generation projects is unlocking value from underutilized real estate, delivering solutions to our customers and accelerating a sustainable U.S. energy transition."

"As a proven provider of flexible and stable capital sources, we are proud to partner with Radial Power on this inaugural debt financing transaction, which will support Radial Power's ability to deliver clean energy solutions for its real estate clients at scale," said Can Baysan, Director at ATLAS SP. "There is an unmet need to deploy distributed solar solutions across commercial real estate sites in the United States, and this innovative financing solution will help the Radial Power team make continued progress on their business and sustainability goals."
