[1] We have variable interest entities related to the PPA* V (see Note 10 — Portfolio Financings) and a joint venture in the Republic of Korea (see Note 17 — SK ecoplant Strategic Investment), which represent a portion of the consolidated balances recorded within these financial statement line items. In August 2023, we sold the PPA V as a result of the PPA V Repowering of the Energy Servers (see Note 10 — Portfolio Financings), as such the consolidated balances recorded within these financial statement line items as of December 31, 2023 exclude the PPA V balances.
