Solar Frontier Americas completes acquisition of 100 MW solar project from GCL New Energy

Solar Frontier Americas, a US-based renewable energy business of Idemitsu Kosan Company, has completed the acquisition of a 100 MWDC solar plant from GCL New Energy, Inc., a member of GCL New Energy Holdings Limited. 

 The project is located east of Denver, Colorado, in Adams County, and is currently in the final stages of development. Construction is expected to begin in the latter part of 2019, and it will serve a power purchase agreement (PPA) with Intermountain Rural Electric Association (IREA), a nonprofit electric distribution cooperative based in Sedalia, Colorado. IREA serves over 160,000 customers in 11 Colorado counties.

Solar Frontier America's acquisition of the Pioneer Solar Project adds to their most recent successes including the acquisition of a 210 MWDC solar project located in Kings County, California and the signing of a 56 MW PPA with a California-based Community Choice Aggregator (CCA).
