Sun Edison has announced today that it is partnering with the electronic manufacturing facility Flextronics to begin constructing solar photovoltaic (PV) panels in Ontario, Canada. The manufacturing partnership was made to help Canada’s York region fulfill product demand for its new feed-intariff program (FIT) — the first such electricity pricing structure in North America.

SunEdison and First Reserve – two international solar industry leaders – have entered into a joint venture to interconnect a 70-megawatt (MW) solar energy plant in Rovigo, a small town in northeast Italy.

Now SunEdison is at it again, recently installing a 1-megawatt (MW) solar plant in Pima County in southern Arizona that will generate over 2 million kWh of solar power each year.

Following the most recent completion of a 1.5-megawatt (MW) solar energy system at a Staples distribution center in Hagerstown, Maryland, the world’s largest supplier of office products is now the largest host of solar energy generation in the state.

Monday marked an important day for the California solar industry as AT&T and SunEdison introduced a new San Diego, California rooftop solar energy installation that is expected to produce 420,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of energy during its first year of operation. According to MarketWatch, the system will generate over 7.7 million kWh of energy over a 20-year [...]

SunEdison, a subsidiary of MEMC Electronic Materials (NYSE: WFR), has activated a 300,000 square foot, 1.1 megawatt (MW) solar energy system atop the Staples (Nasdaq: SPLS) fulfillment center in La Mirada, California.

Sun Power Corp. and Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) have etched out a contract that will add 40 megawatts (MW) of photovoltaic (PV) energy capacity to a planned solar farm in San Luis Obispo County, California that, when complete, will be one of the largest solar farms in the world.

North America’s largest solar energy services provider, SunEdison, and Xcel Energy’s regional operating company, Southwestern Public Service Company, today announced a deal for five photovoltaic (PV) solar installations in New Mexico. Together the installations will total 50 megawatts (mWs) of solar generation capacity — enough to power more than 10,000 homes. To be sited in [...]

Irvine schools have entered into an agreement with SunEdison and SPG Solar to install solar panels at 21 campuses.

As we’ve noted on this blog before, the apt phrase for the renewable energy industries is not, “If you build it, they will come,” but rather, “If you subsidize it, they will build it.” Such is the case of Ontario, Canada, which is seeing a boom in solar energy-related activity since putting in place a [...]
