Trina Solar has announced it is to supply 1.1 million high quality multi-crystalline modules to the Copper Mountain Solar 3 Project at Boulder City, Nevada. The project is owned and operated by Sempra US Gas and Power and will be constructed by AMEC. Upon completion the facility will provide clean solar electricity to 80,000 homes for the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and the City of Burbank.
“The selection of Trina Solar for this record-breaking project is a strong endorsement of our capabilities in meeting the evolving demands of our customers in a maturing market” said Mark Mendenhall, President of Trina Solar Americas. “We look forward to completing this project and powering tens of thousands of homes with clean, reliable solar power.”

“Trina Solar is uniquely qualified to provide solar panels to this project” said Tom Dotson, Vice President at AMEC. “Their modules' track-record of proven performance and their strong balance sheet made them an easy choice for Copper Mountain Solar 3.”
