“We're scaling fast in the US, with over 2 GW contracted and around 1 GW in construction today” said Sybil Milo Cioffi, Zelestra's US CFO. “Working with tier-one financing partners such as Natixis CIB is a strong signal of where that momentum is headed — their support reflects real confidence in our execution track record and our growth trajectory in this market.”
