Canadian Solar signed to supply its PV modules to a series of projects in Georgia totaling 5.1 MW with Atlanta-based solar developer and EPC provider SolAmerica Energy, LLC. As the sole provider of PV modules for these projects, Canadian Solar expects these projects to be completed in December of 2014.
Each of the projects will be owned by Citizens Energy Corporation of Boston pursuant to a development and EPC Agreement with SolAmerica Energy. All of the projects will utilize Canadian Solar CS6X-310-P PV modules, and the energy produced from the arrays will be sold to Georgia Power pursuant to the Georgia Power Advanced Solar Initiative.
The projects under construction include the following:
R. Stanley Allen, President of SolAmerica, said, "As part of the 8 MW of solar projects that SolAmerica will develop and build in Georgia by the end of 2014, these projects will help grow the base of solar energy in Georgia. Based on the performance and reliability of Canadian Solar PV modules in previous projects we developed, we hold full confidence in their product performance."
