Solar Alliance Sells Interest in British Columbia Wind Projects for $1.35 million

January 18, 2017

Solar Alliance Energy, Inc. ('Solar Alliance') or (the 'Company') (TSX VENTURE: SAN) (OTCQB: SAENF) is pleased to announce it has signed a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Concord Green Energy, Inc. ("Concord") for the sale of certain British Columbia wind energy assets for $1,350,000 through a plan of arrangement. The wind asset sale includes the sale of a 15% interest in the Wildmare Wind Energy project and a 100% interest in other assorted development stage wind assets in British Columbia. The wind asset sale and plan of arrangement does not involve the Company's solar assets.

The Wildmare Wind Energy Project is an advanced stage 77.4 MW project located 4.5 km northwest of Chetwynd, BC and has several key attributes:

  • Strong wind resource in a region with transmission capacity;
  • Significant wind, engineering and environmental studies have been completed;
  • Financial models indicate a project with strong returns; and,
  • The long term market for clean, renewable electricity is strengthening with potential demand from the proposed LNG industry in British Columbia and the potential for power exports to Alberta.

"The sale of a portion of our British Columbia wind assets will allow us to fund the ongoing expansion of our solar business in the United States," said Chairman and CEO Jason Bak. "In combination with this transaction, we are also pursuing a potential strategic partnership in an effort to accelerate the expansion of our solar operations. We have seen strong revenue growth over the last half of 2016 and we want to focus all of our resources on the massive potential we see in our U.S. solar operations."

Further details regarding the plan of arrangement will be provided when a definitive Transaction Agreement is reached with Concord. There can be no assurance that the definitive Transaction Agreement will be entered into. Completion of the proposed transaction remains subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent.
