Canadian Solar has entered into a deal with UAE-based Al Fahad Group, a major provider of comprehensive energy solutions in the region, to develop one of the largest solar Photovoltaic (PV) projects in Abu Dhabi. Under the agreement, Canadian Solar will supply more than 1.5MW of its solar modules to Al Fahad Group, which is spearheading one of the largest solar PV projects in Abu Dhabi. Canadian Solar’s CS5A-M solar modules will be used for the project, as they are ideally settled for the local environmental conditions. The solar markets in Middle East and especially in UAE have a great potential for development, given commitment of the government and financial system, and forward thinking of key proponents.
