HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc. (“HASI”) (NYSE:
HASI), a leading investor in climate solutions, has closed a
structured equity capital partnership with IGS Solar, a leading
solar finance company and affiliate of Dublin, Ohio-based IGS
Energy, to finance U.S. residential solar and energy storage
systems. HASI’s first equity investment in the partnership is
expected to finance the deployment of a 71 MW portfolio in
2025.
The rooftop solar systems in the portfolio are primarily
contracted to homeowners via 25-year leases, which enables
homeowners to benefit from monthly savings on their electricity
bills. The systems are expected to be located across 11 states,
with a focus on New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and
Florida.
“IGS’s forward-thinking approach and well-established profile as
one of the largest independent retailers, combined with their
significant experience and growth as a residential solar sponsor,
make them an ideal partner,” said Daniela Shapiro, Senior Managing
Director of HASI. “This investment marks an exciting milestone, and
we look forward to building a strong programmatic partnership with
IGS Solar to advance our shared mission of creating a sustainable
energy future.”
Since its establishment in 2017, IGS Solar has deployed >$1
billion in residential solar lease and PPA assets for ~30,000
homeowners across 10 states. IGS Solar expects that the new
partnership with HASI will support the deployment of solar and
energy storage systems for up to 60,000 customers over the next
three years. IGS Solar is now well-positioned to grow as a major
residential solar financing provider by delivering high-quality,
low-friction consumer financial products and asset management
services to support system sales by national, regional, and local
installer partners.
“A strategic partnership with such an experienced financing
partner in HASI will enable accelerated growth for IGS Solar in new
markets and is expected to be the first of many, paving the way for
future opportunities and advancements in the energy sector,” said
Brandon Childers, COO of IGS Energy.
Marathon Capital, LLC served as financial advisor to IGS
Solar.
