Corporate giants like @amazon, @GM , and @Walmart have made some ambitious #cleanenergy promises, but can they meet their goals with energy procurement alone?
As our CEO Thomas Byrne explains in his recently published @ForbesFinanceCl article, the transferability provision of the IRA may be the key to meeting sustainability goals and unlocking the project financing developers need.

When approaching a #solar and #storage deal, we prioritize these three components:
1. Propose bid prices that we can actually close on.
2. Maintain good working relationships throughout the entire process.
3. Ensure a smooth transition of ownership
In our experience, focusing on these three aspects has helped us to acquire over 230+ projects. Read more from Julia F. Bell, CCO, about our battle-tested approach to partnerships:

CleanCapital's CEO Thomas Byrne was recently a featured guest on @REWorld's Factor This! Podcast. Thom and podcast host @EngelsAngle discussed a variety of topics, including how the corporate demand for #renewables has impacted clean energy growth, the rising cost of capital, and the importance of adapting to this ‘new normal’ brought on by inflation and high interest rates.
Thom drew upon his deep expertise as he remarked, "Returns are going to get adjusted. PPA rates are going to have to be higher. There might have to be some expense shaving to make deals work."
