Spark Power Awarded Three New Solar Projects in Alberta With GP Joule; the 70 MW Projects to Begin Construction in Fall 2021

OAKVILLE, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2021 / Spark Power Group Inc. (TSX:SPG), parent company of Spark Power Corp. ("Spark Power" or the "Company"), is excited to share that we have partnered with GP JOULE, a global renewable energy company, on the construction of three new solar power projects in Western Canada. Based in Alberta, all sites are owned by Concord Green Energy and include Monarch, a 23.6-MW site, Coaldale, a 22-MW site, and Vulcan, a 22-MW site. Spark will provide full engineering, procurement, and construction support for the substation interconnection portions of each project, including electrical house supply and commissioning scope. Substation construction is set to begin in the fall of 2021, with completion of the last project in early 2022.

"This is a great opportunity for Spark Power to continue to expand our solar power services in Alberta," said Morgan Cowl, Vice President, Operations at Spark Power. "With a comprehensive portfolio of completed and ongoing solar, wind, battery energy storage, and electric vehicle infrastructure projects across North America, Spark has significant expertise in providing innovative renewable solutions for our customers," said Cowl. "We have a widely skilled team and are eager to begin work on this project," he said.

Throughout the first quarter in 2021, Spark's renewables business segment, which accounted for over 30% of total revenue in Q1, continued to grow by approximately 26.8%. This was the result of particularly strong growth across Spark's wind and solar services in the U.S.

"By partnering with GP JOULE on these new projects, we are continuing to establish Spark as a leading provider of renewable energy services across North America," said Richard Jackson, President & CEO of Spark Power. "As we move into a post-pandemic economy, we look forward to a strengthening market throughout Canada and the U.S.," he said. "We are confident that this project will provide opportunities for us to continue building our footprint in Alberta and Western Canada - areas that hold vast opportunities for renewable energy work in the future," said Jackson.

"GP JOULE found in Spark Power an ally in terms of safety, quality and reliability, with a well-established local execution team built through acquisitions," said David Pichard, CEO of GP JOULE North America. "Our client, the Concord team, looks for the highest level of service, and the Spark Power partnership aligns with our company culture as a leader in the construction of high-quality PV and storage assets," he added.
