The Samson Solar Energy Center II is a 200-megawatt (MW) solar power facility slated to begin commercial operations later this year. Once completed, Samson II will generate enough clean electricity to power over 40,000 homes. The project is part of Invenergy’s Samson Solar Energy Center, a five-phase, 1,310-MW development that is the largest solar energy center in Texas. Collectively, the Samson Solar Energy Center will produce enough energy to power 300,000 homes and help advance Texas’s leadership in clean energy.
“We’re proud to have worked with Invenergy on the tax equity solution for the Samson Solar Energy Center II,” said Bryan Didier, Partner & Managing Director of Renewable Energy at Monarch Private Capital. “This investment is another important milestone for our team, and we’re excited to partner with Invenergy on a project that is providing skilled jobs and clean energy to a community that has experienced economic hardship.”
Brian Bortman, Senior Vice President of Finance & Capital Markets at Invenergy, added, “The tax equity financing of Samson II marks another significant milestone for our flagship project. This innovative transaction is a testament to Invenergy’s strong financial partnerships and our unmatched capabilities to accelerate clean, reliable energy at scale.”
