Strategic Solar Partnership Launched

In a significant move towards renewable energy expansion, Savion Equity LLC, a subsidiary of Shell plc, has announced the formation of a new joint venture, Tango Holdings, with a fund managed by Ares Infrastructure Opportunities. This partnership marks a pivotal step in the development and management of solar energy projects across the United States.

Project Details and Ownership

The venture will oversee 496 megawatts of solar assets located in Ohio, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Indiana, including the Martin County Solar Project and the Kiowa County Solar Project, among others currently under construction. Ownership is structured with Ares holding an 80% stake and Savion retaining 20%, reflecting a shared commitment to advancing solar energy infrastructure.

Shell's Renewable Energy Strategy

This initiative is part of Shell's broader strategy to selectively develop renewable generation projects, gradually reducing ownership as they mature. This approach allows Shell to efficiently scale its renewable energy portfolio, enhance capital returns, and maintain strict cost discipline, further solidifying its position in the renewable energy sector.

Future Developments

Shell has also revealed plans to continue expanding its onshore renewable power generation assets through Savion's development pipeline, signaling ongoing investment in sustainable energy solutions.
