$SAENF Solar Alliance releases Q3 results, sets the stage for long term growth
Press Release | 11/26/2021
TORONTO and KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solar Alliance Energy Inc. (‘Solar Alliance’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: SOLR) announces it has filed its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s Financial Statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis are available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.
In Q3 2021, Solar Alliance continued to successfully transition its focus to include larger, higher revenue solar projects in addition to owning and operating the Company’s own solar assets.
Business development efforts in Q3 resulted in the signing of contracts for up to 1.7 megawatts (“MW”) of solar projects for third party customers, with approximately .7 MW expected to be completed in Q4, 2021 for a total of 2.2 MW of contracted projects in 2021. This represents a significant increase over the total of .74 MW of commercial solar projects contracted in 2020.
“This quarter sets the stage for future revenue growth as we are now signing contracts for significantly larger projects, and in greater numbers,” said CEO Myke Clark. “These most recent contract signings have positioned Solar Alliance for a strong end to 2021 and an even stronger beginning to 2022, with a growing backlog of contracted projects. We also completed the acquisition of a 298kW solar project in New York that will be built in early 2022 and generate stable, recurring revenue under a 30-year power purchase agreement.”
Key Financial Highlights
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was $252,352, compared to $530,385 in the comparable period in 2020. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $2,255,460, compared to $2,517,610 in the comparable period in 2020.
Q3 represents an inflection point for Solar Alliance as the Company invested in new sales channels to improve the long-term sales pipeline of larger solar projects. This focus resulted in the signing of two larger projects after the end of Q3 and the addition of several other large projects to our sales pipeline. The contracts signed subsequent to the end of Q3 will positively impact revenues in Q4 and moving forward.
Cash and cash equivalents of $3,165,889 provide a strong balance sheet to continue pursuing larger project sales opportunities and provide a stable platform for growth.
Key Business Highlights
The Company signed a Joint Development Agreement with Boyd Company (“Boyd CAT”), a regional Caterpillar dealer, and will be opening an office in Louisville, Kentucky. Boyd CAT is the authorized dealer of Cat® solar equipment for businesses and contractors across Kentucky, Southern Indiana, West Virginia and Southeastern Ohio.
Agreement with Abundant Solar Power (“Abundant”) to jointly pursue largescale utility solar projects in the U.S. Southeast. The projects will range in size from 1 megawatt to 10 MW and larger and will typically involve competitive bids to local and regional utilities.
Solar Alliance announced the appointment of Mr. Rob Roberti as the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer and Mr. Brian Timmons as a new independent member of the Board of Directors.
Key Highlights Subsequent to Quarter End
Solar Alliance signed a contract for a 526-kW solar system in Tennessee. Solar Alliance will design, engineer and install the project, which is targeted for completion by the end of 2021.
The Company signed a contract to build a 500-kW solar system in Kentucky. The contract includes an option for the customer to select Solar Alliance to build an additional 500-kW system at the same location, for a potential total project size of 1 MW.
The Company completed the acquisition of a 298-kW project in New York State from Abundant Solar Power Inc. The project acquisition, first announced on May 26, 2021, represents the first project Solar Alliance will own and operate under a 30-year power purchase agreement. Construction will commence in early 2022.
“The recent contract signings are in addition to smaller commercial and residential projects we continue to deliver to customers. This balanced strategy – the high growth of building for third party customers combined with recurring revenue from solar assets we own – is scalable and supports our goal of becoming a leading commercial and industrial solar provider in the U.S.,” concluded Clark.
The Company also announces that, subject to regulatory approval, it has granted an aggregate of 1,000,000 incentive stock options (“Options”) to certain directors and/or officers in accordance with the Company’s stock option plan. All such Options have an exercise price of $0.175 per share and a 5-year term.

Press Release | 11/16/2021
TORONTO and KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solar Alliance Energy Inc. (‘Solar Alliance’ or the ‘Company’) (TSX-V: SOLR) is pleased to announce it has completed the acquisition of a 298 kilowatt (“kW”) project in New York State from Abundant Solar Power Inc.

“The completion of this acquisition is a clear indication of the progress our team continues to make as we build out our project pipeline and begin building projects that we will own and operate,” said CEO Myke Clark. “This project is the first of several we plan to build, own and operate in New York State in partnership with Abundant and will provide stable, recurring revenue in addition to the revenue we continue to generate from the sale of solar systems to businesses and utilities.”
Solar Alliance and Abundant continue to make progress on a second, 389 kW project in New York State first announced June 23, 2021.
These two projects represent the initial stages of a longer-term relationship with Abundant to build out a robust portfolio of assets Solar Alliance will own and operate.
“We are pleased to be working with Solar Alliance on this project and see the potential for an expanded relationship moving forward,” said Abundant CEO Richard Lu. “Abundant Solar has an extensive pipeline of solar projects in development, and we see strong synergies between our two teams.”
The net capital cost for the project is expected to be approximately US$401,000 and will be financed by Solar Alliance through a combination of debt, equity and tax equity. The Company targets an unlevered internal rate of return of 7-9% for projects at this stage of development and this project falls within those parameters.
