Pacific Blue 能源公司，将会与Siliken可再生能源公司建立“阳光太阳能农场”。 与此同时，两家公司向本地公用事业进行投标，要在亚利桑那州Flagstaff附近154.3英亩的土地上开发一个能够产15兆瓦电能的阳光农场。
“Siliken一直想要扩大其在美国的影响力。并且已经把PBEC作为开发项目的最佳合伙人，”PBEC的CEO Joel Franklin 说。“Siliken加入我们的发展团队来一起开发太阳能阳光农场，我们太高兴了。”
阳光太阳能能农场位于Flagstaff 30英里以东的科科尼诺县，该站点可以提供20兆瓦的太阳能产能-是使用一个固定的倾斜或单轴跟踪系统，两者都由Siliken开发。
阳光太阳能农场海拔5300英尺，土地得益于凉爽的，高温沙漠气温，可提高太阳能电池板的光电效率。 土壤测试表明，土地是能够很好的为太阳能电池板料架系统提供基础-用最少的花费 。 对于每5兆瓦的太阳能的产出，将会由机架上25000个太阳能光伏板提供。
Pacific Blue Energy Corp. will be partnering with Siliken Renewable Energy to build the "Sunshine Solar Farm". Together, the companies will submit a bid to a local utility to develop a 15 MW solar farm on 154.3 acres near Flagstaff, Arizona.
"Siliken has been looking to expand its presence in the U.S. and has identified PBEC as the perfect partner to make this happen," says PBEC CEO Joel Franklin. "We are thrilled to have Siliken join our development team to fulfill our vision for the Sunshine Solar Farm."
The Sunshine Solar Farm is located 30 miles east of Flagstaff in Coconino County. The site can support as much as 20 megawatts of solar electricity generation - using either a fixed tilt or a single axis tracking system, both of which have been developed by Siliken.
At an elevation of 5300 feet, the Sunshine Solar Farm land benefits from cooler, high desert temperatures that can increase the photovoltaic efficiencies of solar panels. Soil tests show that the land is well suited to support the foundations for a solar panel racking system - with minimal costs. For every 5 MW, a solar farm requires roughly 25,000 photovoltaic panels on racks.
"As one of the preferred companies in the PV industry, Siliken is making a strategic effort to diversify our activities and further commit to new sources of renewable energy, including solar power," says Kevin Davies, Director of Operations of Siliken Renewable Energy, Inc. "Partnering with companies like PBEC helps us to meet our goals to expand in the United States and it opens the door for us to develop more PV solar projects in the Southwest."
