Canadian Solar divests two solar projects in Alberta

Canadian Solar Inc. has sold ownership interest in its Hays and Jenner solar projects to BluEarth Renewables. BluEarth will also assume management responsibilities of the project in Canada.

Located in southeast Alberta, Hays and Jenner are 31 MWp (23 MWAC) in size. The projects are co-owned by Conklin Métis Local 193, an indigenous community based in the rural hamlet of Conklin and part of the Athabasca Oil Sands region in eastern Alberta. Both projects are expected to start commercial operation in 2021.
