The partnership with Deutsche Bank also underscores the strength of Catalyze’s platform, which integrates proprietary technology, asset development expertise, and operational excellence to streamline the clean energy transition for commercial, industrial, and public sector clients. The company’s scalable model enables rapid origination, financing, and deployment of renewable energy projects that deliver long-term economic and environmental benefits.

This latest financing facility provides Catalyze with the strategic capital needed to capitalize on growth opportunities and advance its mission to build a more sustainable future.
This latest facility follows the recent closings of Catalyze’s $400 million financing with
ATLAS SP Partners and an $85 million tax equity investment from
