SolaREIT, a prominent real estate investment firm specializing in solar and battery storage, has announced it has deployed over $125 million in capital to back battery energy storage system (BESS) projects across the United States. These investments have supported more than 1,400 MWac of storage capacity, bolstering grid resilience and enabling wider adoption of clean energy technologies nationwide.
Launched just a year ago, SolaREIT’s capital solutions for BESS developers are rapidly scaling. The company’s offerings—ranging from land purchases and lease buyouts to battery storage land loans—aim to address a crucial challenge in the sector: securing suitable, strategically located land near existing grid infrastructure. These premium sites often carry high costs, especially in urban zones, making flexible financing a vital enabler for project success.
“Battery storage is the backbone of a resilient, modern grid—and it all starts with land,” said Laura Pagliarulo, CEO of SolaREIT. “Our goal is to deliver practical and flexible capital that helps developers focus on building and executing impactful projects.”
SolaREIT’s solutions are available in all 50 states and are designed to align with developers’ project timelines, capital strategies, and long-term goals. With the battery storage market continuing to grow alongside renewable energy deployment, SolaREIT’s financing platform is positioned to play a key role in accelerating clean energy infrastructure.
This development underscores the increasing importance of innovative financial tools in overcoming land acquisition hurdles and scaling energy storage capacity across the U.S.
