Origis Energy, one of America’s leading renewable energy platforms, announced on Aug 16 that it has closed a $750 million construction warehouse funding facility. The facility will fund large scale solar and energy storage project construction totaling approximately 2 gigawatts (GW) across 15 states over the next three years. The move follows the announcement of an upsizing amendment to raise the money in March this year.
