MARBLE BAR, Australia, Dec. 12 (UPI) -- SunPower Corp. announced it will work with Horizon Power on a solar tracking system in Australia.
U.S.-based SunPower, a manufacturer of high-efficiency solar technology, announced the agreement to build the 505-kilowatt solar power installation for Horizon Power.
Horizon is owned by the Australian government and provides power to remote communities in the state of Western Australia.
The installation will be located in Marble Bar and Nullagine and together will be the largest solar tracking system in Australia.
"Western Australia is one of the best locations on Earth to capture the power of the sun," said Bob Blakiston, managing director of SunPower Australia. "The SunPower systems that we build on these sites will maximize the clean, renewable solar power generated for Horizon Power and the communities the company serves."
Construction on SunPower's installations is expected to be complete by September 2009.
