Lightsource bp has successfully closed on a $348 million financing package, set to support the construction and operation of a 288 MW portfolio comprised of two utility-scale solar projects in Texas.
The financed projects are the company’s 163 MW Starr Solar located in Starr County, Texas and 125 MW Second Division Solar project located in Brazoria County, Texas. Both projects are scheduled to come online this year.
“This deal is an important milestone towards building out our growing portfolio of solar and storage projects across the United States, extending our relationship with several top-tier financing counterparties, each of whom have partnered with Lightsource bp on previous transactions,” says Lightsource bp’s Emilie Wangerman. “It’s also our first transaction to benefit from the transferability provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 to monetize the projects’ investment tax credits.”
Societe Generale served as the coordinating lead arranger and hedge provider. ING served as a mandated lead arranger, hedge provider, green loan coordinator, as well as the administrative agent and collateral agent. NatWest acted as a lender to the company. Lloyds Banking Group served as a mandated lead arranger and hedge provider. Allied Irish Banks served as a mandated lead arranger.
Lightsource bp currently operates three solar projects in Texas: the 260 MW Impact, 163 MW Elm Branch and 153 MW Briar Creek Solar.

I suppose there are people who believe that the radical left is on a path to make Christianity illegal, and perhaps to install Islam as the official religion of the United States. This is remarkable for two reasons:
a) Every schoolchild in America learns about the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of religion at a very young age, and
b) This country made it successfully though 250 years with no one being ignorant enough to bring up this ridiculous concern.
One would hope that this figure of near 60% would indirectly translate into Trump’s ouster before he can take full control of the U.S. government.
We vote Trump’s stooges out of office in November and replace them people of honor. Trump is impeached, convicted and removed. From there, justice takes its course.
