The transaction will be KKR’s second investment in the company via the RCPS structure, following an initial 2.4 trillion won investment in November 2021.
SK E&S is looking to de-leverage and capture post-pandemic opportunities after using KKR’s initial investment to accelerate its growth and transformation into a global clean energy provider, KKR said in a separate statement.
Established in 1999, SK E&S, a unit of conglomerate SK Group, engages in a range of businesses, including overseas gas field development, power generation, district energy, and city gas.
KKR’s latest investment will be from its infrastructure-focused funds in Asia Pacific, it said.
