ENGIE Signs Target on Sand Fork Solar Project in Texas

June 12, 2019 – Houston, TX – ENGIE North America Inc. today announced it has entered into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Target Corp. for 89 MW of capacity from the Sand Fork Solar Project in Texas.

 

Slated to come online in the summer of 2021, the Sand Fork Solar Project will have a total capacity of 200 MW. In addition to providing clean, renewable energy, the Project will have a positive economic impact in the local area, namely through local construction jobs and purchases of local goods and services. The remainder of the Project’s capacity will be purchased by another corporate customer.

The power purchase agreement has a term of 15 years and is estimated to result in annual generation of 250,000 megawatt hours, enough energy to power 250,000 U.S homes for more than a month.

“We truly value the opportunity to support Target in its commitment to source electricity from renewables,” said Gwenaelle Avice-Huet, CEO of ENGIE North America. “By serving Target with the Sand Fork Project, we’re proud to help shape a sustainable future for customers and communities and reinforce our ambition to lead the zero-carbon transition.”

ENGIE’s ambition is to lead the zero-carbon transition based on 3 pillars: Client Solutions across a broadening array of services (including on-site co-generation, heating and cooling networks, public lighting, rooftop solar); Networks to adapt them to future green gas requirements and continue to generate attractive returns and substantial cash flow; and Renewables, with a plan to add 9 GW of renewables capacity to the Group portfolio (24 GW at the end of 2018) by 2021. In this field, ENGIE targets 50% of new renewable projects dedicated to specific customers by 2021 and to play a leading role in next-generation renewable platforms including offshore wind and green gas.

North America will be a key market to reach these ambitions both in Client Solutions and Renewables. The Sand Fork Solar Project will contribute to ENGIE’s goal to build at least 2.5 GW of wind and solar capacities in the next 3 years in the U.S. and Canada. As with the Sand Fork Project, these capacities will be dedicated to specific customers.

ENGIE North America Acquires Genbright

May 15, 2019 – Houston, TX – ENGIE North America Inc. today announced the acquisition of Genbright LLC of Hingham, MA, a company pioneering the integration of distributed energy resources into wholesale electricity markets. The purchase enables ENGIE and its DER businesses, including ENGIE Storage, to further the adoption and growth of DERs within markets throughout the United States.

 

ENGIE Storage has been working with Genbright since 2017 to unlock the full potential of energy storage by establishing the capability to deliver valuable competitive services into wholesale electricity markets. ENGIE’s purchase of Genbright enables the full integration of wholesale market bidding, scheduling, and dispatch optimization capabilities into ENGIE Storage’s GridSynergy® platform. Genbright currently manages a portfolio of more than 50 MW of DERs, including front and behind-the-meter solar, demand response and energy storage, using its proprietary wholesale market platform. The purchase was finalized on May 10, 2019.

“This acquisition coupled with ENGIE Energy Marketing NA’s power market operations allow ENGIE Storage to deliver co-optimized energy storage services seamlessly that span from behind-the-meter peak demand shaving and energy arbitrage to in-front-of the-meter wholesale electricity market capacity, energy, and ancillary services, all from a single energy storage asset,” said Christopher Tilley, chief executive officer of ENGIE Storage. “This unique, integrated capability allows us to unlock significant additional value for our customers.”

Distributed energy storage and grid storage can improve the reliability, resiliency, and stability of the electricity grid, and enable the adoption of more renewable energy resources such as wind and solar. Recognizing these benefits, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued an order for electric grid operators across the country to establish rules allowing the full participation of energy storage resources in regional wholesale electricity markets. ENGIE’s acquisition of Genbright ensures that ENGIE Storage is positioned to deliver capacity, energy and ancillary services effectively in markets operated by Regional Transmission Organizations and Independent System Operators as these rules are rolled out across the United States.

“This acquisition paves the path toward realizing the stacked-value stream potential of energy storage referred to by so many in the energy industry,” said Tim Larrison, chief financial officer of ENGIE Storage who along with Tilley will serve as a director on the Genbright board. “Working with Genbright will further support both ENGIE Storage’s market offerings and asset management of ENGIE North America’s generation portfolio.”

“ENGIE has played a leading role in market development from shaping policy to new business models designed to get more storage on the grid.” said Joseph G. Crespo, chief executive officer from Genbright. “We look forward to supporting ENGIE North America’s energy storage and generation portfolio.”

ENGIE’s Distributed Solar Team Closes Investment from Goldman Sachs’ Alternative Energy Investing Group

November 19, 2018 – Chicago, IL – Portfolio of up to 75 MW of Distributed Solar and Battery Storage Projects in Multiple States

 

ENGIE North America’s Distributed Solar team today announced the closing of an investment from Goldman Sachs’ Alternative Energy Investing Group into a partnership managed by ENGIE.

This innovative financing structure will allow the deployment of up to 75 MW of distributed solar and distributed solar plus battery systems across multiple states in the U.S., including California, Nevada, Minnesota, Illinois, Texas, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts.

The partnership is unique as Goldman Sachs’ investment provides both the scale and benefits of what is typically provided by separate investments from tax equity, debt, and sponsor equity investors. It also provides ENGIE with a simplified approach to raising long-term capital for the development and growth of its U.S. distributed solar platform. ENGIE will retain an ownership interest in the portfolio, and will construct, manage, and operate the assets.

The portfolio comprises behind-the-meter installations that will provide power to commercial and municipal customers, and small-scale front-of-the-meter projects with rural electric cooperatives under previously signed long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).

The investment will be deployed over a period of twelve months, and some projects will begin to provide solar power to the customers under these PPAs immediately. The projects were developed and completed by ENGIE North America’s Distributed Solar and U.S.-based Services teams to meet the growing demand by customers for solar and storage solutions that support their businesses and communities.

“We are delighted to have finalized this structure with Goldman Sachs’ Alternative Energy Investing Group to bring increasing amounts of renewable, reliable, and cost-effective energy to business and communities across the United States,” said Daniela Shapiro, Head of Finance for Distributed Solar at ENGIE North America. “Our collaboration brings together two leading players in the energy (ENGIE) and financing (Goldman Sachs) space to really help accelerate access to renewable energy and battery storage at the distributed scale. By working with such a financing partner, we were able to package and simplify the process which brings benefits to everyone involved,” she continued.

Goldman Sachs’ Head of Alternative Energy Investing, Pooja Goyal said, “This partnership with ENGIE demonstrates the opportunities that can be created by taking an integrated approach to financing high-quality distributed solar projects at scale. This investment is consistent with our strategy of providing comprehensive and flexible financing solutions to best-in-class sponsors in order to grow our portfolio of alternative energy assets.”

Cohn Reznick Capital Markets group acted as financial advisor to ENGIE, and Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton and Hunton Andrews Kurth were the transaction legal counsels for ENGIE and Goldman Sachs, respectively.

Nestlé Waters North America Signs Renewable Energy Agreement with ENGIE Resources

October 22, 2018 – Houston, TX – Nestlé Waters North America (NWNA), together with ENGIE Resources, today announced that they have signed a renewable energy agreement through which ENGIE will supply over 50 percent of the energy needed for NWNA’s manufacturing and distribution facilities in Texas. With this agreement, NWNA operations in Travis, McLennan, Dallas, and Harris counties will be supplied by renewable wind energy from the Midway Wind Farm in San Patricio County, Texas, supporting Nestlé’s global goal to transition to 100 percent renewable energy use in its operations.

 

NWNA will use clean, renewable energy to produce sustainably sourced beverage options for Texans, including the company’s Ozarka® Brand Natural Spring Water and Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water. The agreement will include up to 70,500 renewable energy certificates (RECs) per year from Midway Wind LLC. Based on current electrical usage, by transitioning its electrical power needs to renewable sources, the carbon footprint from the company’s Texas factories will be reduced by more than 44,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per year. This is the equivalent of taking 9,500 vehicles off the road for one year.

“At Nestlé Waters North America, we are committed to enhancing quality of life and contributing to a healthier future for individuals and families, communities and the planet. Transitioning our factories to clean, renewable energy is one important way we can achieve this goal,” said Alexander Gregorian, Vice President, Head of Technical and Production at Nestlé Waters North America. “We are proud to partner with ENGIE and Midway Wind LLC here in Texas, as we continue our journey toward achieving 100 percent renewable energy use in our operations.”

“We’re pleased to offer a suite of sustainability solutions that make it easy to be green,” said Graham Leith, Senior Vice President of ENGIE Resources. “In this case, NWNA took advantage of ENGIE’s EasyRE product, which allows our customers to take service directly from an existing renewable energy source. EasyRE differs from traditional PPA via competitive pricing, shorter contract terms and right-sized volumes.”

Earlier this year, Nestlé Waters North America transitioned its facility in Sacramento, California to 100 percent renewable energy, and announced, along with its parent company, a 15-year power purchase agreement that will provide approximately 80 percent of the electrical load for five Nestlé facilities in southeastern Pennsylvania. As a result of these recent milestones, by 2019, over 20 percent of the electricity Nestlé uses in the U.S. will be from renewable sources.

About Nestlé Waters
Nestlé Waters North America offers an unrivaled portfolio of bottled waters for healthy hydration, including Ozarka® Brand Natural Spring Water, Nestlé® Pure Life®, Perrier® and S. Pellegrino®.
