Also watch for regulatory approvals and any updates on the project's commercial operation date. The finance lease treatment will increase reported liabilities, potentially affecting leverage ratios.

Executive Summary

NiSource subsidiary GenCo entered a ~20.5-year tolling agreement with AGP Capital for a 600 MW / 2,400 MWh battery storage project interconnected to MISO. GenCo will pay ~$2.2 billion in aggregate storage payments over the term, accounted for as a finance lease obligation. The deal locks in long-term capacity and renewable attributes but adds a material off-balance-sheet-like liability.

Key Facts

  • GenCo entered a Battery Storage System Tolling Agreement with Atlas Storage 1 LLC (AGP Capital subsidiary) on October 15, 2026.
  • Project is a 600 MWAC / 2,400 MWh stand-alone battery energy storage system interconnected to MISO.
  • Delivery term is approximately 20.5 years, with first phase commercial operation expected by December 1, 2027.
  • GenCo's aggregate storage payments over the term are expected to be approximately $2.2 billion.
  • Agreement is expected to be accounted for as a finance lease obligation under FASB ASC Topic 842.
  • Effectiveness is conditioned on AGP Group executing an EPC contract and interconnection agreement by January 31, 2027.
  • GenCo has an exclusive and irrevocable option to purchase the Project at specified intervals during and at the end of the delivery term.
