The Misae project of 240MW_(AC)capacity located near the city of Childress, Texas, will use JinkoSolar’s monocrystalline solar panels, while M.A. Mortenson Company will be responsible for EPC and O&M.

The project has also entered into a power price hedge with a financial institution, which is one of the first of such hedges to be signed for a solar project, CIP claimed. The project is also expected to secure third-party tax equity funding. CIP bought the Misae project earlier this year.

Commercial operation of the project is expected in Q4 2019.

The Sage project of 58MW_(AC) capacity is located in Rich County, Utah. RES America Construction (RES) will perform EPC services while First Solar will provide modules as well as ongoing O&M services. CIP bought the project in April 2017.

The project has a long-term power purchase agreement with PacifiCorp subsidiary, Rocky Mountain Power. The project also expects to secure third-party tax equity funding. It is expected to become operational in August 2019.

“The solar projects will provide long-term, stable and predictable cash flows with an attractive risk/return profile for the CI III investors and complement the existing portfolio of investments in onshore and offshore wind and other renewables technologies,” said Christian Skakkebæk, senior partner at CIP.
