Greenlight Capital, the hedge fund firm led by David Einhorn, took a stake in UIL Holdings Corp., the New Haven, Connecticut-based utility that plans to combine with the U.S. assets of Spain’s Iberdrola SA.

After the merger, the business will be “less levered than its peers with a large tax asset and attractive renewables cash flows,” Einhorn said in a letter to investors Wednesday.
