In other recent news, NJR Clean Energy Ventures (CEV), a subsidiary of New Jersey Resources (NYSE:NJR), has sold its residential solar portfolio to Spruce Power Holding Corporation for $132.5 million. This transaction includes a 91 megawatt collection of solar assets and approximately 9,800 residential solar lease agreements. The sale is expected to yield a gain for NJR in fiscal 2025, with proceeds aimed at reducing corporate debt and increasing working capital.

Spruce Power, on the other hand, reported a third-quarter revenue of $21.4 million and an operating EBITDA of $17.7 million. Despite a GAAP net loss of $53.5 million, largely due to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, Spruce Power plans to acquire nearly 10,000 home solar systems, with the deal set to close in the fourth quarter of 2024. The company's full-year 2024 operating EBITDA guidance was adjusted to a midpoint of $60 million, a decrease from the previously projected $68 million.

These are recent developments for both companies. Notably, Spruce Power aims to solidify its position as a leading owner-operator and servicer of residential solar assets, while NJR Clean Energy Ventures focuses on expanding its commercial solar portfolio post-sale. These strategic moves reflect the companies' efforts to adapt and grow in the evolving clean energy market.
