JinkoSolar Supplies 17 MWdc of Solar PV Modules in Canada

JinkoSolar announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, JINKOSOLAR CANADA CO., LTD, will supply approximately 17 MW dc of its solar PV modules to Borea Construction ULC  for the construction of the Brooks Solar Project in Brooks, Alberta in Canada.

The Brooks Solar Project is the first utility-scale solar project in western Canada and is owned by Elemental Energy Inc., a Vancouver-based renewable energy developer, investor, and operator. Elemental worked collaboratively with many stakeholders to successfully advance the project through late stage development and construction phases. Emissions Reduction Alberta is a contributing partner on the project.

Over 48,500 of JinkoSolar’s high-efficiency Mono PERC modules will be used for the Brooks Solar Project, Canada’s first solar project utilizing Mono PERC solar PV modules.

“We are proud to work with Borea Construction and Elemental Energy on the Brooks Solar Project, a landmark project for the province of Alberta,” said Nigel Cockroft, General Manager of JinkoSolar (U.S.) Inc.

“We needed very high efficiency modules for the Brooks Solar Project,” said Murray Westerberg, Director, Western Canada of Borea Construction, “and JinkoSolarpresented the best value.”
