SEC investigating SunEdison

Maryland Heights-based SunEdison announced yesterday it's under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Company officials say the SEC issued a notice Oct. 5 that the agency is conducting a nonpublic, fact-finding investigation into the renewable energy developer bankruptcy.

"The notice was accompanied by a subpoena, seeking production of certain emails and other electronic communications sent or received by certain current and/or former directors and/or officers of the company, TerraForm Power Inc. and/or TerraForm Global Inc.," SunEdison officials said in a regulatory filing.

SunEdison filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April.
