Capstone Turbine (NASDAQ: CPST) this morning announced its strategic financing relationship agreement with Sky Solar Holdings (NASDAQ: SKYS) and Sky Capital America, Inc., a Sky Solar subsidiary, to provide funding to Capstone Turbine’s Capstone Energy Finance (“CEF”) joint venture. Among other terms of the agreement, Sky Group has first right of refusal to provide funding of up to $50 million, which may be extended by an additional $100 million at Sky Group’s sole discretion for various CEF projects on a global basis after Capstone and CEF have exhausted internal funding sources of up to $25 million. “Capstone’s new finance subsidiary has developed a twenty million dollar pipeline of well-qualified projects since its launch last December, and we expect to quickly surpass our ability to fund projects with our internal resources,” Darren Jamison, Capstone’s president and CEO, stated in the news release. “We have looked at several potential partners and, after months of due diligence and discussions with several companies, we have selected Sky Solar because we believe they have the right skill set, ability, experience and global reach to help us successfully grow our Capstone Energy Finance business over the next three years.”
