SolaREIT said it has crossed a major industry threshold after providing real estate financing for more than three gigawatts of clean energy projects across the United States. The company, which focuses on land acquisitions, lease purchases and land-backed loans for solar and battery storage projects, announced the milestone alongside its five-year anniversary.
The firm’s financing activities now support projects valued at more than $5 billion across all 50 states. CEO and co-founder Laura Pagliarulo said the company’s expansion reflects consistent demand for specialised real estate solutions within the clean energy sector. “From our first $134,000 deal to supporting more than $5 billion in project value, SolaREIT’s growth shows what’s possible when you stay focused on providing solutions developers need,” she said. Pagliarulo added that the company has scaled by partnering closely with developers “even in tough markets.”
CFO/COO Laura Klein said the firm’s model—centred on financing land tied to renewable energy infrastructure—has helped developers accelerate project timelines and improve capital availability. “Reaching this milestone so quickly underscores the strength of our model and the vital role SolaREIT plays in accelerating the nation’s transition to clean energy,” she said.
SolaREIT’s offerings are targeted at developers and asset owners seeking to monetise land value, reduce long-term lease exposure or add liquidity to cover interconnection, equipment purchases and development-stage costs. The company said its approach enables more flexible project financing options amid rising demand for solar and battery storage capacity.
The firm plans to continue expanding its footprint in land-based clean energy financing, citing growing nationwide interest in real estate solutions that support renewable energy deployment.
