Published

NEW YORK and LONDON, June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Tiger Infrastructure Partners, an innovative middle market growth infrastructure investor, today announced the acquisition of Unison Energy LLC, a fully-integrated Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) platform that provides behind-the-meter microgrid solutions including comprehensive power, heating, and cooling solutions to a wide array of end-markets in North America. The acquisition of Unison expands Tiger’s portfolio of investments in energy transition, one of the firm’s three sectors of focus.  This growth capital investment is the last of nine platform investments for Tiger Infrastructure Partners Fund III, which closed at its hard cap of $1.25 billion in early 2022.

Based in Greenwich, CT, Unison designs, builds, owns, and operates microgrids on-site at customer locations. Unison’s solutions enable cost savings, reduce carbon footprint, and ensure energy resiliency with no capital outlay for the customer. Unison owns and operates ~30 projects (operating and with signed Energy Service Agreements) across essential end-markets including hospitals, data centers, hospitality, food and beverage, biofuels, and other industrials. The portfolio is underpinned by long-term, fixed-price contracts with high-credit quality counterparties and no commodity exposure. The Company focuses on markets with resiliency challenges and/or elevated power prices across the Northeast, Southwest and Midwest.            

Tiger CEO Emil W. Henry, Jr. said, “The role of reliable, resilient, on-site power generation is becoming increasingly sought after as the global energy transition continues apace. We believe that Unison is benefiting from long-term secular tailwinds including an aging grid that is increasingly burdened by the growth of renewable energy and a demonstrable step-change in demand for power driven by artificial intelligence and a drive towards onshoring certain elements of US manufacturing. We are excited to partner with the Unison team to support the Company in its next phase of growth and capitalize on the strong and growing demand for access to more dependable, consistent, cost-effective and lower-carbon power.”

Unison Co-Founder and Co-CEO Andy Cooper said, “Unison provides tailored solutions for commercial and industrial businesses seeking to address rising energy costs, power resiliency challenges, and carbon emissions reductions. We leverage our proprietary systems and in-house engineering and operation & maintenance expertise to play a critical role in power generation and decarbonization. We have been expanding our offering to include on-site carbon capture and other in demand solutions. We believe Unison is well-positioned to become the partner of choice for discerning customers seeking a reliable, long-term solution to reduce cost, enhance resiliency and decarbonize operations.”

Unison Co-Founder and Co-CEO Tim Lukes remarked, “Tiger has deep experience in energy transition, experience with similar business models and track record of partnering with teams to build and scale platforms. As a result, we determined that Tiger would be the ideal partner. We have an actionable pipeline of projects and we are excited to provide creative solutions to our customers with the support of Tiger.”

Ratio Energies announces the achievement of a significant milestone in obtaining approval for additional natural gas exports from the Leviathan reservoir

Published

on

The partnership reported receiving preliminary approval from the Ministry of Energy to export an additional 118 bcm of natural gas

The Leviathan partners intend to undertake detailed engineering planning (FEED) in the near future to expand the production system of the Leviathan reservoir as part of Phase 1B of the Leviathan development plan

TEL AVIV, Israel, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ratio Energies partnership (TASE: RATI), which holds 15% of the Leviathan natural gas reservoir, has achieved a significant milestone. The partnership reported receiving a principal permit to export natural gas from the Leviathan field. The permit allows for an additional total quantity of up to 118 BCM, with the possibility of increasing the quantities to 145 BCM under certain conditions, subject to the decision of the professional echelon in the Ministry of Energy. This is the largest export permit ever granted for a natural gas reservoir in Israel.

The Leviathan field, the largest of the existing fields in Israel, contains an estimated 608 BCM of gas. To date, only about 43 BCM have been supplied to the local market and export markets. The expansion of production from Leviathan will be undertaken as part of Phase 1B of the field’s development plan and is expected to increase annual production to approximately 21 BCM.

The partnership, together with Leviathan’s partners, continues negotiations to sign agreements for the sale of natural gas to customers in the local market and for export. These agreements are based on both current production capacity and future production capacity within the framework of the third pipeline project and Phase 1B of the Leviathan development project.

Yigal Landau, CEO of Ratio Energies: “The Ministry of Energy’s decision to approve additional export quantities of natural gas from the Leviathan field up to 118 bcm is a positive development for the Israeli energy market. The demand for natural gas in Israel and regional markets is growing, and we are prepared to expand production from the Leviathan project accordingly. Expanding production will increase revenues for the country and enhance Israel’s energy security due to additional natural gas available for consumers in Israel. Leviathan’s partners are actively working to promote the field’s expansion and to continue to solidify its position as a strategically important regional gas reservoir.”
