Plaza Hotel El Paso
Opportunity
C-PACE financing from Nuveen Green Capital provided over $9M of the total project cost for energy efficient upgrades to the property. C-PACE worked seamlessly with a complex capital stack and historic tax credits to lower expenses and the total cost of capital. The improvements being financed by C-PACE are projected to generate approximately $254,000 of annual utility cost savings for the hotel.
