| Date | Stage | Investors | Raised | Deal Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 2025 | Undisclosed stage | Monarch Private Capital (lead) | $66M | Aspen Power, a leading distributed generation platform, closed a tax equity facility with Monarch Private Capital on September 5, 2025, to support its solar project portfolios across New York, Illinois, and Pennsylvania as part of its 2025 pipeline. This transaction contributes to a total of $66 million in tax equity commitments secured in the first eight months of 2025, highlighting investor confidence in its distributed generation strategy. The partnership aims to advance clean energy projects and expand access to distributed generation in multiple states. Monarch Private Capital, a firm managing impact investment funds focused on tax credit equity for renewable energy and other sectors, collaborated with Aspen Power to align with its 'all-of-the-above' energy investment strategy. Monarch has a track record of significant impact, including financing over 1,000 projects by Q3 2025, generating nearly $9 billion in tax credits, and enabling more than $20 billion in project capital across renewable energy, affordable housing, historic rehabilitation, and film production. In 2025, Monarch supported substantial renewable energy development, including 75 new projects generating $1.5 billion in tax credits and enabling $3.3 billion in clean energy investments adding 1.7 GW of capacity. While specific financial metrics like valuation or revenue for Aspen Power are not disclosed, the tax equity deal underscores Aspen Power's growth trajectory toward gigawatt-scale ambitions by mid-decade. Separately, Aspen Power secured a $200 million capital raise from Deutsche Bank to enhance its pipeline execution. |
| Nov 2022 | Undisclosed stage | Carlyle Group (lead) | $350M | Aspen Power Partners, a US-based distributed generation platform focused on community solar, multifamily, commercial and industrial (C&I) solar, and storage, received a $350 million investment from funds managed by Carlyle in 2022. The deal involved Carlyle purchasing a significant stake to support Aspen Power's organic and acquisition-driven growth strategy. As part of this, Aspen acquired Safari Energy from PPL Corporation, gaining Safari's entire development platform including 220MW of operating and under-construction solar assets across 24 states and Washington DC. Safari Energy had developed or acquired over 600 C&I solar projects since 2008, generating more than 893,000MWh of electricity, equivalent to displacing over 632,000 tons of carbon emissions. Combined with Aspen's existing community solar portfolios, this positioned the company as a diversified distributed generation independent power producer on track to achieve gigawatt-scale generation by mid-decade. Carlyle Infrastructure Group highlighted their commitment to investing across the renewables value chain, including distributed generation. The investment built on prior funding from investors like Ultra Capital, Lombard Odier, Redball Ventures, and Two Seven Ventures. Aspen Power's co-founder and CEO Jorge Vargas welcomed Carlyle as a partner for the next growth stage. Subsequent financings followed, including expanded credit facilities totaling $241 million from J.P. Morgan, Lombard Odier, and MUFG, a $200 million commitment from Deutsche Bank, additional Carlyle investment, and facilities from BMO and MUFG, supporting nationwide expansion in solar and storage projects. |
| Feb 2022 | Undisclosed stage | Ultra Capital (lead); Redball Power; Energy Impact Partners | $120M | Aspen Power Partners launched in February 2022 with $120 million in funding from Ultra Capital, Redball Power, a global Swiss asset manager, family offices, and high net worth individuals, after incubating at Energy Impact Partners. The capital supports its distributed generation platform focused on community solar, multifamily, and commercial/industrial rooftop markets to accelerate decarbonization. At launch, Aspen entered agreements for 48 community and distributed solar projects totaling over 200 MW across California, Maine, Maryland, New York, and Pennsylvania. Founded by David Berv, Scott Delaney, Dan Gulick, Jackson Lehr, and Jorge Vargas, the team has financed over $1 billion in renewable energy projects with expertise in development, construction, project finance, and asset management. Ultra Capital, the lead investor, emphasized providing flexible equity capital to support Aspen's growth and gigawatt pipeline in the energy transition. Subsequent financings include a $350 million investment from Carlyle in 2022 and a $200 million capital commitment from Deutsche Bank in 2026 for distributed solar and storage expansion. Ultra Capital exited via a financial acquisition of Aspen Power on November 3, 2022. |
