FW: Solar photovoltaic projects to use Satcon technology - POWER-GEN WorldWide

Project aggregation and bulk buy is where the market has evolved in CA. SPP
is doing the same thing with our DG project. Funny that we have been
positioned this way from the start in Ontario, don't you think?

Solar photovoltaic projects to use Satcon technology

Published: Jun 7, 2011
Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) picked Satcon Technology Corp. (NASDAQ CM:
SATC) for 65 MW of photovoltaic power projects across the United States.

The installations will use a variety of panel technologies, such as thin
film and polycrystalline, and array types like ground mount and rooftop and
will use Satcon inverters.

The largest of these solar power projects is for an aggregate 25 MW of
ground mounted PV power plants located near Sacramento, Calif. These
developments feature twenty-five Satcon PowerGate Plus 1 MW inverters.
Constellation Energy will own and operate the systems and sell the
electricity generated from them to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District
(SMUD) under ten, 20-year power purchase agreements. Belectric, Inc. is the
engineering, procurement and construction contractor for the project which
is anticipated to be commercially operational by the end of 2011.

Satcon has also been selected for a 5 MW rooftop system that will use 13
Satcon PowerGate Plus 500 kW inverters.

The remaining projects will use Satcon PowerGate Plus 500 kW or Equinox 500
kW inverters.
