Strategic Value Partners Acquires Majority Stake in New Frontera Holdings

GREENWICH, Conn. and MISSION, Texas, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Strategic Value Partners, LLC (together with its affiliates, "SVP"), a global alternative investment firm with approximately $22 billion of assets under management, today announced that its managed funds (the "SVP Funds") have acquired a majority of the equity interests in New Frontera Holdings, LLC ("Frontera"), a 530-megawatt natural gas-fired combined-cycle generation facility located in Mission, Texas. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

SVP Funds initially invested in Frontera through its first lien term loan prior to the company's 2021 restructuring. Following the reorganization, SVP converted a portion of its position into equity and has since increased its ownership over time, most recently acquiring a majority controlling stake. SVP will acquire Frontera as part of its strategic partnership with EverGen Power ("EverGen"), a power generation acquisition and asset management firm established in 2024 to support SVP with power generation investments across North America.

"By drawing on our deep restructuring expertise and knowledge of the power sector, SVP was well positioned to establish a controlling stake in Frontera," said David Geenberg, Head of North American Corporate Investments at SVP. "Furthermore, through our partnership with EverGen, we will be able to drive value creation over the years to come."

"Frontera is a critical source of dispatchable power in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, one of the fastest-growing regions in ERCOT." said Dave Freysinger, Managing Partner of EverGen Power. "We are excited to bring our resources and expertise to drive best-in-class operations."

Frontera, which began commercial operations in 1999, features two highly efficient, natural gas-fueled combined cycle GE 7FA turbines. It is a key dispatchable asset providing reliable, low-cost power to Texas, supporting robust growth in power demand.
