“安大略绿色能源法的实施使该省变成了加拿大清洁能源经济的桥头堡”该省能源及基础设施建设部长布莱德.杜吉德评论道,“该计划已经吸引了160亿加元的新能源投资,并创造了36000多个工作机会。”
从2008年开始,Samco集团的汽车部件销售遭受了高达63%的下滑,而该业务是Samco集团的传统主项经营业务。因此导致了约37%的劳动力闲置。但是这项新的合作合同,将为Samco集团25%的劳动力提供工作岗位,逐渐生成15-18个高技能要求的工作机会。而这些新工作机会主要得自于sunedison太阳能公司的商业屋顶计划。
“安大略提供的FIT光伏补助政策和合同对我们企业的恢复和发展帮助极大”Samco集团商业发展部副总戴维.A.皮查德介绍到,“同绿色能源公司Sunedison公司的合作使得我们有了极好的机会将经营业务扩展到太阳能届。”
Samco 公司厂房的重建工作已经开始进行,在Sunedison公司的专利设计指导下,第一批太阳能支架有望于9月份下线。Sunedison公司同时预言这些支架以后很有可能会出口到美国。
“通过对Samco集团的观察,我们对安大略省的生产能力及专业性非常满意。”Sunedison公司加拿大副总杰森.格雷评价道,“在安大略生产的支架成本优势非常明显,因而极大的增加了该产品出口美国的机会”
Samco Solar is a division of Samco Machinery Ltd., an Ontario-based equipment and part manufacturer strongly focused on the automotive industry.
"Ontario's Green Energy Act has established our province as a beachhead in the clean energy economy," said Brad Duguid, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure. "It has already attracted CAD$16 billion in renewable energy investment, which will help create a projected 36,000 jobs."
Since 2008, Samco has experienced a 63 percent decline in their automotive sales, traditionally an area of strength for the company, which resulted in a 37 percent decline in its workforce, says Sunedison. This new contract however, will create a 25 percent increase in Samco's labor force, generating 15 to 18 permanent and highly skilled jobs. The balance of the new jobs will stem from the build out of Sunedison’s commercial rooftop projects.
"This contract and the feed-in tariff program of the Ontario government have helped to stimulate growth in our company," says David A. Pichard, VP Solar Business Development at Samco Machinery Ltd. "Working with a solar powerhouse like Sunedison has provided our organization with a significant opportunity for expansion into the green energy sector."
Retooling of the Samco plant has already begun. Using Sunedison's proprietary design, the first solar racking is expected to come off the line this September. Sunedison says it also foresees exporting the solar racking equipment to the U.S market.
"We've been very pleased with the manufacturing expertise in the province as demonstrated by Samco," said Jason Gray, vice president, Canada for Sunedison. "Production of the racking is extremely cost competitive here in Ontario, enabling us to produce product for U.S. export."
