Northland Power to purchase Ontario-built PV panels for solar projects
Friday, November 18, 2011 at 03:45PM Northland Power has signed an agreement with MEMC Singapore Pte. Ltd, an affiliate of MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc. to purchase solar PV modules that will be manufactured in Newmarket, Ontario for its 130 Megawatt Ontario solar portfolio. The modules will be used as part of an approximately $600 million investment by Northland to build ground-mounted solar projects in Ontario, representing one of the largest investments in Ontario's solar energy sector.
In addition to the 400 workers currently employed at the site, which produces MEMC solar PV modules, Northland's investment is expected to create another 700 new engineering and construction jobs through the build-out of the projects.
Northland operates over 1,000 MW of diversified generation, and is actively developing renewable and thermal projects in Ontario, including wind, run-of-river, co-generation, as well as a 400 MW pumped storage facility east of Peterborough, Ontario.
Earlier this year, MEMC began manufacturing solar PV panels in Ontario for SunEdison, its solar energy subsidiary. In July 2011, MEMC announced the expansion of production with its manufacturing partner Flextronics.

A car key programmer is a tool that can be used to recode the transponder in a mechanical key or key fob. Some modern automobiles have specially Obd2 scan tools coded transponders in their keys and will not start or run if the proper signal is not received. In some cases a new key can be programmed without any special equipment, though many vehicles require BMW Gt1 a device referred to as a key programmer. A key programmer may be a standalone unit, though they are sometimes integrated into complex scan tools. Key programmers typically bidirectionally interface with the on-board diagnostics II (OBD-II) connector.
