SPI Solar has purchased Italy-based EPC company Solar Green Technologies (SGT) from LDK Solar Europe Holdings and the founders of Solar Green Technologies, the company has announced. SPI invested US$5 million, consisting of approximately 13,400,533 SPI shares with a value of US$0.45 and circa US$250,000 in cash, paid to the two founders of Solar Green Technologies. The transaction adds 20MW in EPC contracts to SPI Solar’s portfolio.
 
“The SGT acquisition is a perfect complement to our global growth strategy,” Stephen Kircher, CEO for SPI Solar, explained. “In addition to providing a base for our business development and EPC activities as we expand our European efforts, SGT’s revenue and profitability goals align seamlessly with SPI’s. More importantly, this acquisition will enable SPI to accelerate our ramp toward our three-year goal of potentially developing approximately 500 megawatts in solar projects per year.”
