NEW JERSEY, U.S.A. - 14 February, 2013 - Green States Energy, Inc. (Ticker: GSE.BH), a clean energy independent power producer, announced it has acquired a solar PV project portfolio in New Mexico. The projects, which are located in and around Roswell, New Mexico, have a combined capacity of 5.4MW.
Acquisition financing comprised a combination of equity capital, debt and federal section 1603 cash grant proceeds. The first 2.9MW phase of the portfolio was constructed by Hunt Electric Corporation; the remaining 2.5MW will be constructed by S&C Electric Company.
Green States Energy CEO Stephen Clevett said, “This a major step forward for our company and its shareholders. We are pleased to be working once again with Hunt Electric Company as well as Sunrise Energy Ventures, from whom we purchased the plants. These projects will, upon completion of phase 2, add over $27 million to our asset base and will increase our annual, contracted revenues to approximately $5 million. Roswell is a spectacular setting for solar power plants given the near constant, consistent sunshine. We look forward to being part of this fine community for years to come.”
