Masdar has signed a definitive agreement to acquire a 50% stake in Terra-Gen Power Holdings from Energy Capital Partners (ECP), who will fully exit its position in Terra-Gen in connection with the transaction. 

Established in 2007, Terra-Gen is a provider of end-to-end renewable project development, financing and operating capabilities. It currently operates approximately 2.4 GW of wind and solar and 5.1 GWh of energy storage facilities across 32 U.S. sites, predominantly in California and Texas.

“Our investment in Terra-Gen’s impressive energy portfolio expands our existing U.S. footprint and reinforces Masdar’s long-term commitment across our U.S. portfolio,” says Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO of Masdar.

“This transaction unites one of the largest independent renewable energy producers in the U.S. with Masdar, one of the fastest growing clean energy companies in the world. We look forward to working alongside Igneo as our valued partner to accelerate Terra-Gen’s growth and deliver world-class innovation at utility scale in support of the global energy transition.”

The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2024. Igneo Infrastructure Partners will retain its existing 50% stake in the company. The company made its initial investment in Terra-Gen in 2020.

Lazard and Guggenheim Securities are serving as financial advisors and Latham & Watkins is serving as legal advisor to Terra-Gen. BMO Capital Markets and JP Morgan are serving as financial advisors and White & Case and Covington & Burling are serving as legal advisors to Masdar. Mayer Brown is serving as legal advisor to Igneo.

Philosophy on the Decline

At left is a good example of what I mean by: “The last 150 years hasn’t been good for philosophers.”

In the late 19th Century, a question like this was the purview of philosophy.  Now it’s the domain for neuroscientists.

Similarly, the question: “what are the ultimate building blocks of the universe” was fodder for everyone from the ancient Greek philosophers up to the far more recent metaphysicians. Now we ask particle physicists.

Joke on MAGA Attire

This is funny, but in actuality, sane people don’t physically attack the MAGA crowd; in fact, we don’t even make snide comments.

We keep our thoughts to ourselves.  We may feel sorry for these people’s moral depravity and/or stupidity.  We may be angry that the country that was once the envy of the world is now viewed with ridicule and disdain in its path to become irrelevant in global affairs.

But messing with hateful morons in red hats isn’t helping anyone.
