The funding package supports ContourGlobal’s 324 MW Black Hollow Sun project in Colorado, with a mix of tax equity from Japan’s ITOCHU-owned Tyr Energy and debt from international lenders including Crédit Agricole, ING, Intesa Sanpaolo, Mizuho, and MUFG.
Total financing could rise above $421M once the project’s second phase wraps up in late 2026.
The context: Surging electricity demand is fueling a wave of big-ticket clean energy financing.
