IPC and its affiliates currently operate 362 MW of wind-powered and 112 MW of natural gas fired power generation facilities. The Brockville project is IPC’s first solar project.
Mike Crawley, President of IPC, said: “With Brockville, IPC is diversifying our technology base and entering a new and exciting business area. We hope this is the first of many solar projects in our portfolio.”
The AMEC Black & McDonald Joint Venture has been appointed as the EPC contractor for the project, and the solar modules will be supplied by Suntech.
