TotalEnergies SE plans to invest $300 million in a joint venture with Adani Green Energy Ltd., marking the first public deal between the French oil giant and Gautam Adani since a short-seller leveled fraud allegations against the Indian billionaire’s business empire.
Total will hold 50% stake in the new firm, with Adani Green holding the rest, according to an exchange filing Wednesday. This investment is part of the companies’ drive to expand their portfolio of clean energy projects. Bloomberg reported the investment plans last week citing people familiar with the developments.
