KKR, a leading global investment firm, today announced the signing of an agreement under which KKR will acquire a 25% stake in Enilive, Eni’s mobility transformation company dedicated to biorefining, biomethane production, smart mobility solutions, and providing services to support people on the move. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals.

As a leader in the energy transition, Enilive aims to provide progressively decarbonized services and products in support of a sustainability-driven mobility transformation.

KKR has been consistently investing in Italy across asset classes since 2005, with a commitment to supporting the country’s economic and social development. Most recently, KKR announced the closing of its acquisition of Telecom Italia’s fixed-line network and incorporation into FiberCop, creating the most extensive Italian broadband network serving around 16 million households and helping to fast-track the digital transition in Italy.

KKR is making the investment in Enilive through its Global Infrastructure Strategy. The firm first established its Global Infrastructure Strategy in 2008 and has since been one of the most active infrastructure investors around the world, currently managing over $73 billion in infrastructure assets.

Financial advisors for KKR on this transaction were Deutsche Bank and Unicredit, with Kirkland & Ellis and Gianni & Origoni serving as legal counsel.
