TotalEnergies Sells 50% of 1.4 GW North American Solar Portfolio to KKR in $950 Million Joint Venture

The move fits its Integrated Power strategy to monetize de‑risked assets to lift returns.

Overview

  • The deal covers six utility‑scale projects totaling 1.3 GW plus 41 distributed-generation assets of 140 MW, primarily in the United States.
  • TotalEnergies retains a 50% stake and operational control of the assets under the new joint venture structure.
  • The portfolio is valued at an enterprise value of $1.25 billion, with $950 million to be received at closing through sale proceeds and bank refinancing.
  • KKR is investing via its insurance vehicles and accounts, with the firm calling the assets a high-quality addition to its energy-transition portfolio.
  • TotalEnergies says power output from the projects is either contracted to third parties or will be marketed by the company, supporting its capacity and profitability targets.
