SkyPower – the world’s largest developer and owner of utility-scale solar projects – will also construct a $50 million solar and environmental research centre in Panama, which, in conjunction with other leading research institutions, will seek to advance solar photovoltaic (PV) innovation.
Kerry Adler, SkyPower President and Chief Executive Officer, said: “SkyPower invests in countries that uphold environmental sustainability and preservation while advancing their economies and industries. The future of Panama looks bright, as the leadership of Panama is clearly focused on the need for clean renewable energy and has embraced solar as a cost-effective means of addressing Panama’s energy needs today, and as a critical part of its generation mix for its bright future.”
