TORONTO and KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solar Alliance Energy Inc. (‘Solar Alliance’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: SOLR), a leading solar energy solutions provider focused on the commercial and utility solar sectors, is pleased to announce it has signed a contract for the design, engineering, and construction of an 872-kilowatt (‘kW’) commercial solar project for a manufacturing company in Tennessee.
The project, with a $1.8 million capital cost, is scheduled to begin construction in Q2 2023 with completion targeted by October 2023.
“This large project contributes to a strong start to 2023 for Solar Alliance as our backlog of contracted projects to be built this year is now approximately $3.8 million,” said CEO Myke Clark. “This project is a great example of the type of large revenue project Solar Alliance is now targeting and delivering.
