Year Agreement as Preferred EPC Provider of up to 300 Megawatts in Projects for KDC Solar in New Jersey and New York

In December 2010, SPI announced it had been selected to build a 5-megawatt SEF at the White Rose Foods facility located in Carteret, New Jersey. KDC Solar is the Managing Member of this project.

If fully developed, this pipeline alone is expected to generate approximately $600 million of new EPC and O&M business for SPI over the 3-year term of the agreement. As the Northeast market continues to develop, and KDC Solar pursues additional pipeline opportunities in the region, up to 300 megawatts of projects could come to fruition under the agreement.
