LCG, September 1, 2015--Southern Company subsidiary Southern Power yesterday announced the acquisition of a controlling interest (51 percent) in the 200-MW Tranquillity Solar Facility in California from Recurrent Energy, a subsidiary of Canadian Solar Inc. Recurrent Energy will retain the remaining interest in the project, which represents its first partnership with Southern Power.

Signal Energy Constructors is managing the engineering, procurement and construction of the facility.
