Item 8.01. Other Events.
Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC (“the Company”) announced today that, through a wholly owned subsidiary, the Company signed and closed a transaction to sell the entirety of its investments in the Greenbacker Residential Solar Portfolio and the Greenbacker Residential Solar Portfolio II (collectively, the “Residential Portfolios”). Coupled with the recent sale of the Enfinity Colorado DHA Portfolio in December 2019, the Company has now effectively exited the US residential solar market. The Residential Portfolios comprised 3,668 individual residential sites, which were accumulated through a series of transactions from October 2016 to July 2017 at a total cost of $34,525,000. The Residential Portfolios were sold to a leading residential solar aggregator at a considerable premium to our original cost, which enabled the buyer to achieve broad economies of scale across a much larger portfolio of residential solar roof top assets.
