Project update news from the US, where EDF Renewables has started work at its 150MW Milagro solar-plus-storage project in New Mexico, while Enlight Renewable Energy has completed two tax equity partnerships for its 290MW Roadrunner solar-plus-storage project in Arizona.
The former project is co-located with a 75MW/300MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). Milagro will supply electricity to utility El Paso Electric (EPE) under a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA).

EDF signed the PPA with EPE in 2023. Milargo marked the first solar-plus-storage in New Mexico for EDF Renewables.
Situated on private land in the Santa Teresa area of Doña Ana County, New Mexico, the Milagro solar-plus-storage project is designed to store electricity generated during peak hours in a series of batteries.
The latter project, meanwhile, is teamed with a 290MW/940MWh storage facility and the agreements were closed through Enlight’s US subsidiary Clēnera Holdings.
The initial agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank concerns the project’s 290MW solar component. It features a tax equity contribution at the commercial operation date (COD) and additional pay-go payments during the first ten years of operation.
The second agreement with M&T Bank and First Citizens Bank offers tax equity financing for the 940 MWh storage component at COD.
Together, the two partnerships account for about US$340 million in tax equity commitments at COD, with expectations to rise to nearly US$390 million when pay-go contributions are included.
