The infrastructure investment arm of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. has acquired three solar photo-voltaic energy projects (SSM Solar) based in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. SSM Solar, which has a total capacity of 69MWdc and 60MWac, was sold to KKR for an undisclosed price by Starwood Energy Group Global LLC, an affiliate of Starwood Capital, a private equity firm based in Greenwich, Connecticut. During its period of ownership, Starwood Energy oversaw the construction and operation of the Ontario solar facilities. The final phase of development was concluded in 2012.
