The financial closing of a tax equity investment in the 113 MW Longbow solar energy project was announced by Monarch Private Capital, a nationally recognised ESG investment firm that develops, finances and manages a diversified portfolio of projects that generate both federal and state tax credits.

The solar energy project is located in Brazoria County, Texas, within the desirable ERCOT Houston Zone.

The $160 million renewable energy facility will generate clean power, stimulate the local economy and stabilise energy costs for area residents and businesses.

Monarch engages tax equity financing in pursuit of its mission to positively impact communities, which includes its commitment to creating a sustainable future.

Texas Longbow Solar Energy project to be fully operational this year

Since inception of its renewable energy division in 2012, the firm has supported investment in renewable energy projects totalling $2 billion in development cost with 221 facilities across 23 states.

Expected to be fully operational this year, the Texas Longbow Solar Energy project will bring the firm’s total clean power generation capacity to 1.6 GWdc with the ability to abate nearly 17 million MT CO2e over a 35-year lifespan, equivalent to charging more than 2 trillion cellphones or removing 3.6 million passenger cars from the road for a year.

“The closing of Longbow Solar marks yet another significant milestone for Monarch and the continued growth of our renewable energy division,” said Jonathan Gross, Director of Renewable Energy at Monarch.

“Solar power is quickly becoming an integral part of the Nation’s energy mix and a powerful tool on our quest to fight climate change and foster a better future for our planet and the next generations to inherit it.”

Solar energy project a progressive transition

Solar energy is the cleanest, most abundant renewable energy source available,[1] and a key component of the Nation’s clean energy and climate agenda.[2] The clean power capacity generated by Longbow Solar directly supports the US goal of achieving a carbon pollution-free electricity sector by 2035,[3] and its minimum lifetime abatement is 3.2 million MT CO₂, equivalent to greenhouse gas emissions from nearly 690,000 gas-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year or CO₂ emissions from over 620,000 homes’ electricity use for one year.

“The 113 megawatts of clean power generated by the Brazoria County project help diversify the local energy infrastructure, enabling emissions reduction and preserving resource reliability,” said Marsha Harrington, Director of Renewable Energy at Monarch Private Capital.

“Our direct investments in renewable energy projects like Longbow support a positive, progressive energy transition and help our clients and communities achieve their sustainability goals.”
