Sunvalley Solar has been awarded a $3m commercial contract to install solar power at Felix Chao Chuo Farm in the Palm Spring area of the US state of California.

The contract calls for Sunvalley Solar to design and install a 653kW installation comprising three solar modules with 6,876 solar panels at Felix Chao Chuo Farm, in Thermal City, from early 2011.
The solar system is expected to generate more than 1.1 million kWh of electricity annually and to generate surplus power during the peak months of May to October that will offset the cooler winter period and earn credits with Imperial Irrigation District Utility.
‘This contract is another milestone for us in the Palm Spring area following our just announced contract with Long Life Farms to install three solar systems comprised of 8,460 solar panels with a total contracted value of over $3.69m,’ said James Zhang, CEO of Sunvalley Solar.
‘We are working together with other farms in the Palm Springs and Thermal City areas to introduce the option of solar power as a cost–efficient, eco-friendly alternative to traditional electricity. This is just a start in our overall strategic plan to be the dominant supplier of solar products to the Palm Springs market segment.’
