Insights

Secured preferred equity and club debt fund a $317 million ERCOT battery project; reinforces a 15 GWh pipeline and ongoing construction activity.

Peregrine closed a preferred equity commitment with Bildmore Clean Energy and a club lending facility led by First Citizens Bank and Societe Generale, with participation from Siemens Financial Services and East West Bank, to support a $317 million battery energy storage system currently under construction. The company cites a developed pipeline of 15 GWh across SPP, MISO, ERCOT, PJM and WECC and two projects under construction in Texas, indicating active project origination and repeat external financing relationships, including prior rounds in March 2025, $53 million and $115 million, and October 2025 for $130 million.

The concrete dependency is clear: this is a construction‑stage project supported by preferred equity and a multi‑lender facility, so execution and lender/investor follow‑through matter; the announcement itself confirms completed closings rather than conditional intent. Watch near‑term construction milestones and any disclosed commercial‑operation dates or draw schedules for this facility; the financing history through 2025 suggests continued access to sponsor and project capital in the short term.

BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Peregrine Energy Solutions (Peregrine), an integrated multi-technology clean energy platform with a focus on utility-scale battery storage, announced today it has closed a preferred equity commitment with Bildmore Clean Energy for a battery energy storage project that is currently under construction. Concurrently, Peregrine also secured financing from a club of lenders: First Citizens Bank and Societe Generale acted as coordinating lead arrangers, Siemens Financial Services as a joint lead arranger, and East West Bank as an additional lender in the facility.

Peregrine, founded by Hagen Lee in April 2022, finalized a financing agreement with funds managed by AB CarVal in August 2023. The Company has originated and developed a pipeline of 15 GWh of storage across SPP, MISO, ERCOT, PJM and WECC, of which two battery energy storage projects are currently under construction in Texas. Peregrine previously announced multiple rounds of corporate and project financings this year, including:

  • March 2025: $53 million preferred equity commitment from Bildmore Clean Energy and $115 million bridge financing facility from First Citizens Bank and Nomura Securities International, Inc. for a battery energy storage project; and
  • October 2025: $130 million in new capital from a consortium of investors, including the Ministry of Environment of South Korea, IMM Investment, Woori Private Equity Asset Management and funds managed by AB CarVal.

"We're thrilled to announce the closing of our second project financing this year," said Reid Strand, senior vice president of finance with Peregrine. "As we continue to accelerate development across our portfolio, we're thankful for continued support from leading investors and lenders."

David Haug, founder and CEO of Bildmore, added: "Bildmore is once again pleased to partner with the Peregrine team to provide preferred equity and underpin bridge financing on another high quality ERCOT BESS project. We appreciate the creativity and innovation of Hagen Lee's development and finance teams, and look forward to supporting them whenever we can."

"We are pleased to provide Peregrine with this innovative capital structure to facilitate the continued expansion of battery storage energy capacity," said Mike Lorusso, managing director and group head for First Citizens Bank's Energy Finance Group. "This represents our second financing with Peregrine and we look forward to continuing to support them as they grow their portfolio."

"This transaction marks an important milestone in Peregrine's development and we are happy to be able to lead financings that support their continued growth," said Kevin Cartoski, a vice president in the Energy+ Group for Societe Generale.
