Procurement

The installation will be the largest in the state’s history by far, representing more than 10 times the capacity that the state has installed to date.

If approved, the new procurement would raise Duke’s total 2022 solicitation to 1,300MW, a figure equivalent to 30% of all the solar the company has installed in North Carolina to date.

From duties to tariffs to COVID-19 and the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, a look at the supply chain issues threatening the solar module supply market.

Kiewit Power Constructors will serve as the project’s EPC partner, IHI Terrasun Solutions will serve as the battery integrator, and the project will use Maxeon Solar Technologies’ high efficiency bifacial solar modules.

The procurement will help SB Energy to meet the demands of the company’s 4GW solar and storage development pipeline in the US.

Material shortages, trade restrictions, and shipping bottlenecks create challenges for PV module buyers, but the good news is that there are steps to take to ensure quality and timely supply.
