SolarCity Corp. announced that it has increased the size of its corporate revolver to $200 million. This three-year credit facility bears interest of 2.25% over Base Rate or 3.25% over LIBOR. Bank of America Merrill Lynch is the Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, with an additional five participating lenders. The expanded credit facility will be used primarily to fund SolarCity's growth. The company has set a goal to surpass 1 million customers in 2018.

"This expanded credit facility provides the upfront working capital to meet our operational growth projections," said Bob Kelly, SolarCity's chief financial officer. "The facility represents the continued implementation of our financial strategy to drive down the cost of capital and increase the sources of capital for our distributed energy business."

SolarCity provides clean energy by providing renewable electricity directly to homeowners, businesses and government organizations for less than they spend on utility bills. SolarCity gives customers control of their energy costs to protect them from rising rates. The company offers solar power, energy efficiency and electric vehicle services, and makes clean energy easy by taking care of everything from design and permitting to monitoring and maintenance.
