Matrix Renewables closes $970m US solar and storage financing

What's the deal? Matrix RenewablesDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, the TPG Rise-backed platform, has closed more than $970 million in financing for a US solar and storage portfolio.

The package covers debt facilities, tax equity commitments, and refinancing for an 859MWdc solar and 167MWh storage portfolio.

The assets span California, Idaho, and Texas.

Why now? US renewable developers are racing to lock in financing while tax equity and clean-energy incentives remain available.

Lenders are also showing renewed appetite for solar paired with battery storage, which smooths out the intermittency that has long made solar harder to bank.

What could go wrong? Large project financings carry exposure to shifting US policy, rising interest rates, and supply-chain pressure on solar and battery components.

Any rollback of clean-energy tax credits could squeeze the economics that make deals like this work.

The signal: The financing reflects TPG's broader Rise Fund thesis of scaling bankable climate infrastructure, with breakout-stage platform Matrix Renewables now consolidating debt, tax equity, and refinancing into a single billion-dollar package. It positions Matrix as one of the developers best placed to capitalise on US clean-energy incentives before any policy shift narrows the window.
