Santerno has been awarded with a supply contract for 155 MW of Santerno skid inverter stations to be installed in an Imperial Valley, California solar plant.
“This contract is a milestone for Santerno, as it signals our entrance into the USA Solar Farm Market,” says Guido Tonin, Executive Vice President of Santerno Inc., the North America subsidiary of Santerno Group, located in San Francisco.
“The supply to the Project in California is completely in line with our globalization plans for the Solar Farm market segment,” says Marco Tecchio, CEO of the Santerno Group; “we are glad to announce it, following Santerno’s successful completion of the 124 MW Ravenna (Italy) project end of 2011, Santerno’s supply contract announcement for the 81 MW Kathu project in South Africa (South Africa’s very first solar farm) in May 2012, and Santerno’s commissioning in Europe, and lately, in China and India of over 2.5 GW of solar inverters, the large majority of which were deployed in Solar Farm applications.”
