“The supply to the project in California is completely in-line with our globalization plans for the solar farm market segment,” says Marco Tecchio, CEO of the Santerno Group. “We are glad to announce it, following Santerno's successful completion of the 124MW Ravenna (Italy) project end of 2011, Santerno's supply contract announcement for the 81MW Kathu project in South Africa (South Africa's very first solar farm) in May 2012, and Santerno's commissioning in Europe and lately, in China and India of over 2.5GW of solar inverters, the large majority of which were deployed in solar farm applications.”
 

Imperial Valley has attracted a great deal of attention this year from many companies including, Abengoa and Tenaskam supported by conservation groups Defenders of Wildlife, The Sierra Club, Audubon California and the Natural Resources Defence Council.
