CALGARY, AB, June 25, 2026 /CNW/ - TERIC Power Ltd. ("TERIC"), a leading Canadian developer, owner and operator of battery energy storage systems ("BESS") and dispatchable generation assets, and ARC Financial Corp. ("ARC"), Canada's largest energy-focused private equity manager, are pleased to announce that ARC has completed a strategic investment in TERIC to support the company's next phase of growth and expansion. Along with ARC's investment, TERIC welcomes Peter Christopher and Mike Law to the Board of Directors.
The investment provides TERIC with additional capital and strategic resources to accelerate the development, construction and ownership of utility-scale battery energy storage projects across Canada.
