We believe we are in a strong position within our market segments to fully capitalize on the commercial potential there while exploring new growth opportunities. We continue to invest in our infrastructure and additional solar parks to increase our installed power, and the resultant increase in revenue and income streams that this brings, as well as our human capital to ensure continued growth.”
“As we enter 2019, we continue to evaluate the day-to-day operations of all subsidiaries and look for ways to improve all facets of our current business. With the contributions of our new German subsidiaries, for example, we now own twenty-five individual solar parks with a combined installed power capacity of 9.85 MW that together are expected to generate an average of 9,000 MWh per year representing approximately $1 million of recurring annual revenues for the next 20 years. Our goal is to create a global renewable energy company over the long term that can continue its growth path and build shareholder value,” concluded Mr. Browne.
