Calibrant Energy

Why Calibrant Energy?

Calibrant Energy aligns solutions to your needs to accelerate your energy transition.

Our deep industry experience, our leadership in the energy transition, and our commitment to delivering value to our customers is what sets us apart.

Every day new energy technologies are emerging that will further diversify our energy sources, drive new efficiencies, and bring positive societal benefits. Calibrant Energy was formed to deliver and manage these new energy technologies and serve as a partner to companies and institutions seeking long-term energy solutions that are built to achieve specific goals of performance, sustainability, flexibility and value through our Energy as a Service (EaaS) business model.

Clean Energy Counsel

Clean Energy Counsel was formed in 2014, when veteran BigLaw partners and senior in-house renewable energy attorneys were inspired to build a one-of-a-kind law firm. They envisioned a practice that better serves clean energy clients in order to positively impact the world.

Clean Energy Counsel gives attorneys the opportunity to do sophisticated, meaningful, industry-advancing work, all while leading a more balanced life in a work culture that values collaboration and respect. For clients, this translates to an extraordinary level of care, brought to bear for common cause.

With the addition of like-minded attorneys, Clean Energy Counsel grew quickly, maintaining focus on the principles that inspired the firm’s creation. For the whole Clean Energy Counsel team—and the clients that increasingly join us—the mission remains paramount: To provide transformative legal services and solutions that accelerate the world’s transition to a sustainable clean energy future.

As the only mission-driven law firm solely focused on renewable energy, Clean Energy Counsel carries forward its unique model of advancing a sustainable future with sustainable law.

Clean Capital

Distributed Generation Solar + Storage is Our Focus

Since our inception, we have been fully committed to distributed generation (DG)—the ‘middle market’ between residential and utility-scale that powers commercial and municipal off-takers. As one of the top ten commercial solar asset owners in the nation, our presence in middle market solar and storage continues to grow.

Today, in addition to our diverse portfolio of operating assets, we are investing in early-stage development, as well as partnering with developers in emerging and new markets to foster future pipeline opportunities.

Our deep expertise and focused approach has led the world’s largest institutional investors to put their trust in us. As a result, we’ve deployed nearly a billion dollars into funding the clean energy transition in just over eight years.

Cleanleaf Energy

Cleanleaf Energy (previously Borrego O&M) is a leading provider of operations and maintenance services that optimizes the performance of large commercial, community solar, and utility-scale solar and energy storage projects throughout the U.S. The Cleanleaf Energy team brings deep technical expertise to the mission of accelerating the adoption and utilization of renewable energy, and enjoys a track record of superior performance throughout more than 1,000 commercial, DG, and utility-scale projects it has operated and maintained throughout the U.S.

Concentro

Our mission is to create and promote accessible financingmechanisms for distributed generation projects. As we worktowards a cleaner, more reliable, and affordable energysystem, we strive to empower developers with the financialtools they need to succeed.

Convergent Energy + Power

Convergent was founded over a decade ago, in 2011. Our mission has not wavered: build an energy landscape that is less expensive, more reliable, and increasingly sustainable—one that benefits our employees, customers, communities, and planet.

Back in 2011, deploying commercial-, industrial-, and utility-scale battery storage to support the electric grid was a relatively new concept. While other firms shared our mission to accelerate the clean energy transition through AI-powered energy storage, few understood how to actually execute projects to reduce costs and create new value for electricity customers and the grid at large.

Crux

Clean energy development is poised to boom, but we urgently need to make sustainable finance more efficient to move as quickly as needed. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will make hundreds of billions of dollars of tax credits available to companies building facilities or producing clean power and materials. And for the first time, these credits are transferable – creating a new and powerful market mechanism to fund energy transition projects. The market for transferable tax credits needs new standards, more buyers, expanded financial products, and purpose-built software. 

Crux is the ecosystem for developers, tax credit buyers, and financial institutions to transact & manage transferable tax credits. Our network & tools streamline transactions, provide access to a large market, and reduce risk & increase trust.

This is a multidisciplinary problem requiring diverse perspectives. Our team brings extensive experience at the highest levels of government, business, energy, technology, and finance. We look forward to working together to accelerate the energy transition.

Clients such as national and regional utilities, generators, ISOs, RTOs, and pipeline and holding companies rely on our team to resolve critical regulatory matters as they arise. We work closely with clients to develop innovative solutions to their most pressing business challenges, and have handled matters whose outcomes have, or will, alter how energy is valued, distributed, stored, and sold. For example, we assisted a utility with creating a methodology to value distributed generation, and helped another client change federal regulatory policy to allow for the first grid-scale battery storage unit to participate fully in a regional energy market. Clients engage us for guidance and strategic direction throughout their business cycle to develop, plan, and execute upon new and emerging opportunities for growth.

Several of our attorneys have in-house government experience, which enables us to better anticipate the potential outcomes and barriers to our clients’ goals.

At the state level, we are deeply experienced in handling fuel cost recovery proceedings, certification cases for new generation including new nuclear generation, generator interconnections, rate cases, RFPs for purchase power and renewable resources, integrated resource planning, and qualifying facility contracting processes.
