Fidelis Energy Inc.宣布与Lagofrio Energy Solutions签署协议，将为其供应93兆瓦光伏组件，以帮助其在非洲建设数个光伏电站。Fidelis Energy将从今年第四季度起由其中国工厂供应这批组件。据悉，这批组件的价格达到了2.1亿美元。
Fidelis Energy Inc. announced today that it has entered into a long-term solar module supply agreement with Lagofrio Energy Solutions. Under the terms of the contract, Fidelis Energy will supply 93 megawatts of PV Solar modules to TSEL for use in the development and build-out of several solar parks in Africa. Fidelis will begin shipments against this contract during the first quarter of 2011. Product will ship from the Fidelis module plant in China, scheduled to come online during the fourth quarter of 2010.
Mr. Wes L. Volker, Managing Director of TSEL, commented: "We have continued to select Fidelis as our partner to supply our large solar installations due to the cost and performance advantages afforded by the Solar Cell technology owned by Fidelis. This second contract is another step toward a long and prosperous relationship with Fidelis as we develop and expand our energy business in Africa."
"We are very pleased to have secured another large capacity contract for Fidelis Energy," stated Mr. James Poole, CEO of Fidelis Energy. "This second deal with TSEL validates our ever improving position in the international solar market. Along with the substantial investment commitment we secured in February, additional large megawatt capacity agreements are under negotiation that will facilitate Fidelis to command a leadership position in the high growth solar market. We are extremely pleased to be working closely with TinSol Energy (pty) Ltd. to accelerate our growth in Africa." Mr. Poole added, "The environmental benefits of solar energy are critical to addressing the global warming challenge facing all of us. The electricity generated as a result of the deployment and use of the PV modules we will sell to TSEL will avoid the annual emission of nearly 600,000 metric tons of CO2 that would result if the electricity were generated by coal-fired power plants." Fidelis Energy announced up to $80 million of new financing in February 2010, for the purpose of expanding its photovoltaic manufacturing capacity. The Company plans to expand its annual manufacturing capacity by approximately 150 MW in each of the next several years.
