The US Department of Energy closed a US$489.4 million loan to Pattern Energy's subsidiary Amanecer Puerto Rico, supporting 220MW of battery energy storage systems and future natural gas generation to strengthen Puerto Rico's electric grid and reduce electricity costs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.
