Elon Musk’s Space Exploration Technology Corp. agreed to buy $90 million in SolarCity Corp. bonds tied to payments from rooftop solar power systems.
That’s almost all of the $93 million in one-year bonds that SolarCity is offering at a 2 percent interest rate, the San Mateo, California-based solar developer said today in a regulatory filing. Musk is co-founder and chief executive officer of Hawthorne, California-based SpaceX, as well as chairman and largest shareholder of SolarCity.
