In October 2010, First Reserve made an initial payment of EUR46m to SunEdison, and on 23 December 2010 funded the final EUR230m payment.
SunEdison said that the Rovigo solar project is expected to create environmental benefits.
In its first year of operation, the system is expected to generate enough energy to power approximately 16,500 homes and prevent the emission of 40,000 tons of CO2, according to the company.
The ongoing operations and maintenance of the 70MW power plant will be managed by SunEdison.
