EXCELSIOR, Minn.: Excelsior Energy Capital (“Excelsior”), a leading independent North American renewable energy investor, announced today that its North American Renewable Energy Fund (the “Fund”) has closed on the acquisition of 100 percent of Grupo T-Solar Global USA Inc’s sponsor equity interests in the 25 MWDC El Centro Solar Project (the “Project”), located in El Centro, California.

The Project benefits from an over 5-year operating track record having begun operations in December 2013.

Chris Moakley, Managing Partner of Excelsior, said: “Excelsior is pleased to announce the acquisition of the El Centro project given its fit with Excelsior’s strategy to acquire high-quality operating solar and wind projects with stable, long-term contracted cash flows, with room for further improvement of long-term operational and financial performance for the Fund’s limited partners.”
