The clean energy sector in the US just witnessed a major development as Madison Energy Infrastructure secured $800 million in financing to expand its solar and storage footprint nationwide. With energy demand climbing and the shift to sustainable power accelerating, this move positions Madison Energy as a key player in redefining how communities and businesses access reliable clean energy.

The $800 million construction-to-term debt facility marks a significant leap forward for Madison Energy. This funding round, which includes new and repeat institutional investors, underscores the confidence banks and lenders have in Madison’s growth trajectory. Fifth Third Bank, Societe Generale, BNP Paribas, KeyBank, Credit Agricole, TD Bank, Lloyd’s, and Natixis came together to back the company’s distributed generation pipeline. Beyond its scale, what makes this financing remarkable is its focus on enabling long-term operations and expansion, ensuring stability and growth for years ahead.

Madison’s ambition doesn’t stop with financing. The company recently acquired NextEra Energy Resources’ distributed generation development platform, a strategic move that instantly boosted its portfolio to nearly 1 GW of operating capacity. With over 500 projects spanning 25 states, Madison is now positioned to serve a diverse customer base, from corporate and industrial clients to nonprofits and public sector organizations. This expansion demonstrates not only scale but also Madison’s commitment to enhancing grid reliability and meeting rising clean energy demands.

The proceeds from this facility will directly fuel the construction and deployment of distributed solar and energy storage projects. For customers, this translates into greater access to sustainable power solutions that reduce carbon footprints while lowering energy costs. By targeting 1 GW of operating capacity, Madison is helping communities transition toward a cleaner energy future, one project at a time. With EQT Infrastructure’s backing since its acquisition of Madison Energy Investments in early 2023, the company is poised to lead the next chapter of distributed clean energy growth in the US.

Madison Energy’s progress is proof that bold financing, smart acquisitions, and a clear vision can accelerate the energy transition.
