Borrego to spin off its development business and focus just on EPC and O&M work in solar and storage

Solar and storage project developer, EPC and O&M provider Borrego announced it will sell its development business (including an 8.4 GW solar/25-GWh storage pipeline) to ECP, an energy transition-focused investor.

Upon the completion of the transaction, ECP will operate the development business as an independent company. The business will be headquartered in Lowell, Massachusetts, and will be led by the current Borrego development team as they continue to execute on the long-term business strategy in partnership with ECP. Dan Berwick, currently President of the development business, will become CEO.

“Borrego’s development business owns a best-in-class track record and project pipeline. We are thrilled to be partnering with Dan and team to help continue the company’s tremendous growth and success,” said Andrew Gilbert, partner at ECP. “At ECP, we believe the opportunity set in sustainable infrastructure is expanding rapidly as the world continues to advance electrification as a means to decarbonize. We’re excited to join forces with Borrego’s development business to create ECP’s eleventh renewable platform and fourth standalone solar platform.”

Borrego will continue to invest in its engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operations and maintenance (O&M) business units. Borrego EPC is a national builder of utility-scale and community-scale solar and energy storage projects with more than 450 MW of solar projects and 200 MW of energy storage projects currently in design or construction. Borrego is also a leader in third-party O&M services for distributed generation and utility-scale solar plants. The team currently manages the performance of 1.4 GW and over 1,000 solar operating assets, the majority of which were built by other EPCs.

“We are seeing tremendous opportunities in Borrego’s EPC and O&M services. This sale ensures we can invest in our people and build the technology that will position them to capitalize on what will be a record-breaking decade for solar and storage deployment in the United States,” said Mike Hall, chief executive officer of Borrego. “I am thankful for the incredible development team that I’ve had the pleasure of working with for the last 12 years. We are thrilled that we were able to find a partner with ECP’s industry experience, financial resources and reputation. I am confident that together they will accomplish great things and continue Borrego’s mission to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy.”

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acted as exclusive financial advisor to Borrego in connection with the transaction.
