The projects were awarded to Advanced Energy (AE) Solar Energy by Moose Power, one of Ontario's leading solar development companies and will produce more than three megawatts (MW) of clean renewable energy. AE Solar Energys photovoltaic (PV) inverters were selected for these projects based on the companys reputation for high-performance and outstanding service.
AE Solar Energy has provided excellent service and delivered products on-time that offer superior performance, said Andrew Knapp, managing director at Moose Power. We look forward to working together on future projects as we continue to build our project pipeline and provide customers with unparalleled results.
All six projects are supported by the Ontario Power Authoritys (OPA) Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) program. Under this program, the OPA purchases the solar electricity produced for a fixed rate over a 20 year term. To complete the projects Moose Power worked with Advanced Green Technologies (AGT) and Nautilus Solar Energy, LLC (Nautilus Solar), whose strong understanding of the project development cycle and ability to move projects forward matched well with AE Solar Energys technical expertise.
AE is thrilled to be working with Moose Power and its partners to provide products tailored for the Ontario solar market, said Gordon Tredger, executive vice president for AE Solar Energy. Moose Powers local FIT program expertise and strong presence in Ontario combined with our technical expertise creates a partnership that we look forward to growing.
The projects will leverage AEs industry-leading utility-scale Solaron 500 inverters and PVP250kW commercial inverters. By utilizing AEs complimentary product lines Moose Power was able to match the inverters best suited to each projects specific needs.
