BayWa r.e. Wind announces that it has secured a tax equity commitment from a consortium led by GE Energy Financial Services for its 250-MW Amadeus Wind project located north of Rotan, Texas.
The project has also executed a hedge agreement with Morgan Stanley and, in the most difficult market since the financial crisis of 2008, closed on a construction loan with Commerzbank. The project is already in construction and is expected to be placed in service in Q4 2020. BayWa r.e. has utilized 5% safe harbor equipment to qualify for the project for 100% PTC’s.
Once operational, the project will deploy GE wind turbines across nearly 25,000 acres of federal, state and privately held lands, and could generate enough clean, renewable energy to power over 75,000 homes annually.
Due to the location of the project, Amadeus is expected to have little to no curtailment or basis risk.
