Solar Power Partners (SPP) and JCM Capital have signed a contract with Avacos Clean Energy, to provide long-term equity financing for its portfolio of rooftop solar arrays in Ontario. Funding will cover both the planning and construction of systems with a combined capacity of up to 20MW across the province.

The agreement with Avacos follows on from the recent launch of SPP and JCM’s Solar Fund, which aims to install 200MW of PV systems on a range of large commercial and industrial buildings throughout Ontario; the fund has already agreed to build projects totalling 54MW.
