Canadian Solar has signed an agreement with Entropy Solar Integrators to supply modules for 44MW solar farms in North Carolina, US.
The company will supply its Solar CS6X-P PV module series to Entropy, which is building seven farms in the state this year.
The projects are expected to generate more than 1.1 million kWh of renewable energy over the next 20 years, which can power more than 130,000 homes.
Entropy managing partner Lewis Reynolds said: "Entropy has a strong partnership with Canadian Solar and this is our second major order with them for projects that will enter service this year.
"Continued commitment to the US market by low-cost manufacturers such as Canadian Solar, in spite of the challenges, is encouraging and ultimately essential for the continued deployment of low cost solar energy in the US."
Covered by a ten-year warranty on materials, the Canadian Solar modules provide a 25-year linear power output performance guarantee supported by third-party insurance policy, which is underwritten by insurance companies.
