Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC (“Greenbacker,” “GREC,” or the “Company”), an independent power producer and a leading climate-focused investment manager, has announced financial results1 for the first quarter of 2024, including year-over-year increases in revenue, operating capacity,2 and clean energy generation.

Greenbacker converted 209 MW of pre-operational assets into revenue-generating, operational assets, a year-over-year increase of 15%

A key focus of Greenbacker’s recent new investment activity has been converting the pre-operational assets under the Company’s control to operational, revenue-generating assets, as well as the repowering of three operational wind projects.

The Company’s independent power producer (“IPP”) business segment placed into service 209 megawatts (“MW”) of clean energy-generating capacity, growing its operating fleet by 15% on a year-over-year basis. This expansion included bringing online the 99 MWdc / 80 MWac Fall River solar project—one of GREC’s largest assets to date.

As of March 31, 2024, GREC’s operating fleet had increased to 1,574 MW—nearly 1.6 gigawatts (“GW”)—of projects generating revenue through the sale of electricity.

$437 million financing for wind repower portfolio includes Greenbacker’s major first sale-leaseback financing and represents one of industry’s first deals to leverage domestic content adder

During the first quarter of 2024, Greenbacker completed construction and financing on the third and final wind asset in its first portfolio of repowers (after completing financing on the previous two repowers in late 2023), bringing total financing for the milestone portfolio to $437.2 million.

The portfolio represents a number of financing milestones for Greenbacker. The projects are among the clean energy industry’s first to utilize the 10% domestic content bonus newly created by the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”),3 in addition to qualifying for the 30% investment tax credit.

The repowers are also Greenbacker’s first sizable projects financed via sale-leaseback. This financing structure provided the Company with greater upfront proceeds and efficiently captured the benefits of both tax equity financing and back leverage lending in a single transaction.

By monetizing the portfolio’s 40% tax credit through the sale-leaseback financing, Greenbacker was able to realize the IRA’s benefits more quickly, both fully financing the repowers and utilizing additional proceeds for other corporate activity, such as converting the Company’s pre-operational pipeline into operational revenue-generating assets.

Company’s first-quarter total operating revenue topped $49 million, a year-over-year increase of 19%, driven by growth in both solar and wind power generation

GREC’s fleet of clean energy projects produced over 644,000 megawatt-hours (“MWh”) of total power, representing a year-over-year increase of 12%.

The production increase was largely driven by a 21% increase from Greenbacker’s operating solar fleet, which generated approximately 308,000 MWh of clean power. Greenbacker’s wind fleet experienced a 6% year-over-year uptick in power generation, producing more than 325,000 MWh of energy.

The Company’s wind energy production increase was realized despite the third and final asset in the repower portfolio being offline for a portion of the first quarter of 2024 while its repowering was being concluded. With all work now completed, the repowered assets are projected to significantly increase Greenbacker’s annual operating revenue in the long term, starting by contributing over $24 million of revenue in 2024.4

GREC Operating Fleet* First Quarter 2024 First Quarter 2023 YoY Increase (total) YoY increase (%)
Clean power produced by solar assets (MWh) 307,829 255,225 52,604 21%
PPA revenue generated by solar assets (millions) $15.3 $12.8 $2.5 20%
Clean power produced by wind assets (MWh) 325,406 305,628 19,778 6%
PPA revenue generated by wind assets (millions) $17.7 $16.2 $1.5 9%
Total clean power generated by wind and solar assets (MWh) 633,235 560,853 72,382 13%
Total PPA operating revenue generated by wind and solar assets (millions) $33.0 $29.0 $4.0 14%

*Some figures may not add to stated totals, due to rounding.

Over the quarter, Greenbacker generated total operating revenue of $49.2 million, a year-over-year increase of 19% that amounted to an additional $7.9 million of operating revenue.

This increase was primarily driven by energy revenue within the IPP segment, which totaled $44.6 million and included $34.3 million from the Company’s long-term PPAs. Funds From Operations (“FFO”) was $(2.4) million for the period and represents the $9.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense and distributions to our tax equity investors. The net loss attributable to Greenbacker was $8.5 million for the quarter, driven by items such as depreciation, amortization, and impairment charges recorded during the period.

Leadership team expanded as Company appointed new Chief Financial Officer and added newly created position Head of Capital Markets

In early 2024, Greenbacker announced the expansion of its leadership team. Christopher Smith, CFA joined the Company as Chief Financial Officer, bringing over 20 years of accounting and finance experience within the energy sector.

The Company also welcomed Carl Weatherley-White as Head of Capital Markets, following the late-2023 addition of Daniel De Boer as Head of Infrastructure. These newly created roles, essential to the firm’s continued growth, highlighted Greenbacker’s expanding strategy, capability, and commitment to investing in the energy transition.

“We’re excited to have the right team in place at the right time, and we look forward to capitalizing on the opportunities we see across the energy transition investment landscape,” said Charles Wheeler, CEO of GREC. “We remain focused on building value for our shareholders, while providing a differentiated and compelling value proposition through direct access to the investment opportunities arising from the massive capital need as the world transitions to a clean energy future.”

Over $44 million was raised in investment vehicles managed by GCM, increasing fee-earning AUM to approximately $728 million

Greenbacker Capital Management (“GCM”) raised $44.2 million for its managed funds during the first quarter, increasing fee-earning AUM5 to approximately $728 million, as of quarter end. Aggregate AUM,6 which includes the assets managed for Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company, for which GCM does not receive management fees, was approximately $3.7 billion.

Company plans to build out its revenue-generating operating fleet, topping 3.2 GW by end of 2027

Greenbacker plans to continue building out its pre-construction pipeline, converting development opportunities into risk mitigated pools of operational cash flows on a rolling basis in the coming years. By 2027, assuming the Company successfully carries out these construction plans, Greenbacker expects to double the capacity of its operating fleet, leading to strong growth in revenues, cashflows, and Adjusted EBITDA, as these additional assets become operational and begin producing and selling electricity.7

The table below illustrates Greenbacker’s estimated timeline for bringing into service its current pre-operational pipeline.

  Operating Fleet (MW) Pre-Operating Fleet (MW) Total (MW)
Q4 2024 1,756 1,489 3,245
Q4 2025 1,952 1,292 3,245
Q4 2026 2,723 521 3,245
Q4 2027 3,171 74 3,245

Capacity figures are rounded to nearest MW. Figures may not add to stated totals due to rounding. The figures in this table reflect the estimated timeline as of 3/31/24. Timelines may change or be adjusted based on market conditions.

Compared with the estimated timeline included in Greenbacker’s annual results press release, the table reflects an overall net decrease of approximately 39 MW in Greenbacker's fleet. These MW represent pre-operational assets for which development timelines and project dynamics evolved to no longer optimally align with the Company’s investment strategy, and their removal was negligible to GREC’s overall value.

Company’s investments continued to abate carbon emissions, conserve water, and support green jobs

Along with significant year-over-year revenue, production, and capacity increases, GREC also continued to deliver on its sustainability goals.

As of March 31, 2024, Greenbacker’s clean energy assets had cumulatively produced approximately 9.3 million MWh of clean power since January 2016, abating 6.6 million metric tons of carbon.8 The Company’s clean energy projects have saved nearly 6.4 billion gallons of water,9 compared to the amount of water needed to produce the same amount of power by burning coal. Greenbacker’s investment activities will sustain over 6,700 green jobs.10

Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results to differ materially from those anticipated at the time the forward-looking statements are made. Although Greenbacker believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that the expectations will be attained or that any deviation will not be material. Greenbacker undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement contained herein to conform to actual results or changes in its expectations.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresIn addition to evaluating the Company’s performance on a U.S. GAAP basis, the Company now utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures to analyze the operating performance of our segments as well as our consolidated business. Each of these measures should not be considered in isolation from or as superior to or as a substitute for other financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, such as net income (loss) or operating income (loss). The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to supplement its U.S. GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting its operations.

Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company uses as a performance measure, as well as for internal planning purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to management and investors in providing a measure of core financial performance adjusted to allow for comparisons of results of operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis, as it includes adjustments relating to items that are not indicative on the ongoing operating performance of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure used by management that is not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as superior to or as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Funds From OperationsFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company uses as a performance measure to analyze net earnings from operations without the effects of certain non-recurring items that are not indicative of the ongoing operating performance of the business. FFO is calculated using Adjusted EBITDA less the impact of interest expense (excluding the non-cash component) and distributions to tax equity investors under the financing facilities associated with our IPP segment. 

The Company believes that the analysis and presentation of FFO will enhance our investor’s understanding of the ongoing performance of our operating business. The Company considers FFO, in addition to other GAAP and non-GAAP measures, in assessing operating performance and as a proxy for growth in distribution coverage over the long term.

FFO should not be considered in isolation from or as a superior to or as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before: (i) interest expense; (ii) income taxes; (iii) depreciation expense; (iv) amortization expense (including contract amortization); (v) accretion; (vi) impairment of long-lived assets; (vii) amounts attributable to our redeemable and non-redeemable noncontrolling interests; (viii) unrealized gains and losses on financial instruments; (ix) other income (loss); and (x) foreign currency gain (loss). Additionally, the Company further adjusts for the following items described below:

  • Share-based compensation is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA as it is different from other forms of compensation, as it is a non-cash expense and is highly variable. For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost. In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to the Company is based on a share-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.
  • The change in fair value of contingent consideration, which is related to Greenbacker’s acquisition of GCM and certain other affiliated companies, is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, if any such change occurs during the period. The non-cash, mark-to-market adjustments are based on the expected achievement of revenue targets that are difficult to forecast and can be variable, making comparisons across historical and future quarters difficult to evaluate.
  • Other costs that are not consistently occurring, not reflective of expected future operating expense, and provide no insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. This includes costs such as professional services and legal fees, some of which were incurred as part of the transition to non-investment company accounting, and other non-recurring costs unrelated to the ongoing operations of the Company.

FFO is calculated using Adjusted EBITDA less the impact of interest expense (excluding the non-cash component) and distributions to tax equity investors under the financing facilities associated with our IPP segment.

The Company uses Segment Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the financial performance of and allocate resources among our operating segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is determined for our segments consistent with the adjustments noted above but further excludes unallocated corporate expenses as these items are centrally controlled and are not directly attributable to any reportable segment.
