Canadian Solar Inc. announced that it will be partnering with Signal Energy to provide Engineering, Procurement and Constructions (EPC) services and supply solar modules for ESCO Pacific's 175MWp/133MWac Finley Solar Farm in New South Wales, Australia.
The solar plant will be built on approximately 1,000 acres of grazing, crop and irrigated lands near Finley, New South Wales, Australia. Over 490,000 of Canadian Solar's 1500V high efficiency KuMax modules (CS3U-P) will be installed on single-axis solar tracking systems. When completed, it will produce enough electricity to meet the needs of more than 90,000 NSW homes and displacing more than 400,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually.
Construction of the project began in December 2018 and is expected to complete in October 2019.
