Rabobbank Provides $50 Million Financing

NEW YORK (July 13, 2021) – Rabobank, a global food and agribusiness bank and leader in sustainably-oriented banking, has announced it will provide a $50 million debt facility to support Redaptive, Inc., a San Francisco-based company that provides energy and metering solutions to companies in a variety of industries. Rabobank acted as sole mandated lead arranger, administrative agent and collateral agent for the facility, which will help Redaptive expand its commercial and industrial customer base.

“Redaptive is a pioneer in the growing Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) industry, and Rabobank is proud to provide the funding that will help Redaptive drive its customers’ goals of reducing their energy consumption and associated costs,” said Claus Hertel, Managing Director-Project Finance at Rabobank North America. “This credit facility supports the energy saving contracts Redaptive signs with its commercial and industrial customers.”

EaaS continues to grow in North America and is becoming increasingly relevant as organizations seek to improve building efficiency to reduce operating costs and greenhouse gas emissions. Energy and sustainability services reduce downtime, mitigate risks, and increase the profitability of an organizations’ assets while also attaining LEED and green building certifications, important and desired designations as ESG protocols are implemented. 

“We’re excited to partner with Rabobank to grow our platform in the commercial and industrial markets and enable more organizations to meet their energy reduction goals,” said Redaptive CFO Matt Gembrin. “This facility lowers the cost of doing business, diversifies our funding resources and allows us to provide our customers with the most competitive solutions in the marketplace.”

Redaptive works with companies to provide innovative, data-driven energy generation and efficiency programs including HVAC, LED lighting and other utility upgrades, which help customers meet their portfolio-wide sustainability goals.

Why Achieve benefits ?

Energy as a service (EaaS) firms are revolutionizing the way businesses manage and consume energy. These innovative companies provide comprehensive energy solutions that go beyond traditional energy procurement and management. By offering a suite of services, including energy efficiency upgrades, renewable energy integration, and demand response programs, EaaS firms help businesses optimize their energy usage, reduce costs, and minimize their environmental footprint.

Partners ?

One of the key advantages of partnering with an EaaS firm is the flexibility it offers. Instead of investing in expensive infrastructure upgrades or navigating complex energy markets on their own, businesses can rely on EaaS providers to handle all aspects of their energy needs. This allows companies to focus on their core operations while benefiting from the expertise and resources of the EaaS firm. Moreover, EaaS firms often utilize advanced technology and data analytics to optimize energy usage in real-time. By monitoring energy consumption patterns and identifying areas for improvement, these companies can help businesses achieve significant energy savings without sacrificing performance or comfort. In addition to cost savings, EaaS solutions also contribute to sustainability and environmental stewardship. By implementing energy-efficient technologies and transitioning to renewable energy sources, businesses can reduce their carbon footprint and support the transition to a clean energy future. Furthermore, EaaS firms offer scalability, making them suitable for businesses of all sizes and industries. Whether it's a small retail store looking to reduce its energy bills or a large manufacturing facility aiming to improve its sustainability practices, EaaS solutions can be tailored to meet specific needs and goals. Overall, energy as a service firms are driving innovation and transformation in the energy sector, empowering businesses to become more efficient, resilient, and sustainable in the face of evolving energy challenges. With their comprehensive services and commitment to excellence, EaaS firms are poised to shape the future of energy management and pave the way for a cleaner, more sustainable world.
