Swift Current Energy Secures $779 Million in Project Financing for American-Made Double Black Diamond Solar Project

Vinson & Elkins advised Swift Current Energy in connection with the project financing for its 800 MWdc (593 MWac) Double Black Diamond Solar project.

Once operational, Double Black Diamond is expected to be the second largest single phase solar project in the US and the largest solar project in MISO, producing enough energy each year to power the equivalent of more than 100,000 homes and reduce regional carbon dioxide emissions by approximately one million tons per year.

The Vinson & Elkins team was led by partner Eamon Nolan and Aaron Prince, with assistance from partners Lauren Collins and Sean Moran, and associates Maria Borges and Alyssa Allen. Other key team members include senior associate Rimal Kacem and associate Laura Byrd; partner Matt Dobbins and associate Kelly Rondinelli; and counsel Elizabeth McIntyre.
