Revera Energy, a renewable‑energy platform backed by The Carlyle Group, has closed a $150 million credit facility that translates to A$222 million and £111 million. The facility, led by Nomura as sole bookrunner and lead arranger, is intended to fund the rapid development and construction of battery‑storage, solar and green‑hydrogen projects across Australia’s National Energy Market and the United Kingdom.
The new capital will support a portfolio of projects that include a 250‑MWp battery‑storage site in Australia slated to enter construction in Q3 2026, the first stage of the Bungama 250‑MW/700‑MWh battery project expected online in Q2 2026, and a 158‑MW solar farm portfolio in New South Wales. In the UK, Revera plans to advance a 200‑MW battery project that has received a notice to proceed in Q1 2026 and two additional projects totaling 800 MW that will be built over the next 12 months.
Revera’s expansion is part of Carlyle’s broader strategy to generate fee‑related earnings from its portfolio companies. By backing Revera’s growth, Carlyle will earn management and performance fees tied to the platform’s expansion, diversifying its revenue streams beyond traditional private‑equity investments. The company’s fee structure is designed to reward successful execution of large‑scale renewable projects, aligning Carlyle’s interests with Revera’s operational milestones.
Nomura’s role as lead arranger underscores the bank’s focus on financing renewable‑energy infrastructure. The transaction signals strong institutional confidence in Revera’s execution capabilities and the growing demand for battery storage and green‑hydrogen assets in both Australia and the UK, where policy support and grid‑integration needs are accelerating.
Revera Energy was founded in May 2025 from assets carved out of Amp Energy, another Carlyle‑backed developer. The platform’s rapid scaling, now backed by a $150 million credit facility, positions it to capture a significant share of the record pipeline of new generation and storage projects in the National Energy Market and the UK’s decarbonization push.
The financing provides Revera with the liquidity to accelerate project timelines, reduce construction risk, and capture early revenue from battery‑storage and green‑hydrogen operations. For Carlyle, the deal enhances its recurring fee income and demonstrates its ability to support high‑growth renewable platforms, reinforcing its reputation as a strategic partner for infrastructure ventures.
