Return secures €835 million financing to expand battery storage capacity in Germany
Amsterdam-based energy storage startup Return has secured €835 million in portfolio financing underwritten by Deutsche Bank and Rabobank to expand battery storage in Germany. Return aims to install at least 1 GW of battery storage capacity annually from 2027 and plans to invest €750 million to €1.2 billion a year in German projects. The initial framework covers three German projects totaling 117 MW.
