We have secured USD 37 million (EUR 33.5m) in growth financing to advance its late-stage projects.
The funding will also facilitate strategic partnerships with Meridiam and Baker Hughes, with Meridiam supporting project origination and development and Baker Hughes supplying electric motor compressor and turbine generator solutions.
Financing was provided by Elemental Energy, Canoe Financial, ArcTern Ventures, MaRS Catalyst Fund, and Lorem Partners, involving equity, debt, project development, cash commitments, and asset acquisition.
Our A-CAES technology, operating similarly to a gas plant but emission-free, allows for flexibly sited, long-duration energy storage.
We plan to utilize the funds to complete construction of its Angas project in Australia and advance its large-scale A-CAES pipeline across the US, Canada, Chile, and Australia. RBC Capital Markets served as Hydrostor’s advisor for the transaction.
