NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macquarie Asset Management portfolio company Calibrant Energy ("Calibrant"), a distributed energy platform providing customized energy solutions at scale, today announced the closing of the acquisition of a 100% interest in Enel X Storage, LLC ("Enel DES") from Enel X North America, Inc. ("Enel X North America").
The acquisition of Enel DES significantly expands Calibrant's development pipeline and portfolio of operating assets, bolstering the company's ability to deliver cutting-edge clean energy solutions for commercial, industrial, and institutional customers. Both Calibrant and Enel DES originate, develop, own, and operate an array of distributed energy technologies including battery storage ("BESS"), solar photovoltaics ("PV"), microgrids, and electric transport infrastructure.
As a unit of Enel X North America, Enel DES continually pushed the boundaries of customer-sited distributed energy solutions, growing to more than 330 MWh of BESS projects in operations or construction, including some of the largest behind-the-meter BESS projects in North America. Beyond its operating portfolio, Enel DES brings to Calibrant more than 700 MWh of distributed projects in late-stage development, as well as over 2 GWh of optimization service contracts which seek to increase competitiveness, improve energy spending, and reduce risks for third-party BESS projects.
"Enel DES has an impressive track record of delivering innovative clean energy solutions to clients and I'm excited to welcome the talented Enel DES team to Calibrant," said Philip Martin, CEO of Calibrant Energy. "Together, we will continue to meet the evolving needs of large power users by offering scalable solutions that simplify the path to decarbonization, combat rising energy costs and price volatility, and achieve enhanced resiliency."
