“The closing of this landmark financing agreement is a major step towards achieving our objectives of renewable energy deployment,” said Nicholas Pentreath, chief financial officer of X-Elio.

In addition to the latest financing, X-Elio’s ownership changed last month as renewables asset owner Brookfield Renewable acquired a 50% stake in the company from its joint venture partner and investment firm KKR. Brookfield Renewable took full control of X-Elio after the transaction.

In 2015, KKR invested in X-Elio, while Brookfield Renewable acquired a 50% stake from KKR. Over the years, X-Elio received more than US$2 billion in investments from the two companies.
