  • (1888PressRelease) September 16, 2014 - Solamon Energy Corp is proud to announce the signing of a teaming agreement with GAT Mining Ltd, a strategic alliance enabling the company to penetrate the mining sector in Ghana effective immediately. GAT Managing Director Socrates Aboagye and Solamon Energy President Jay Yeo signed the paperwork in Accra that will enable GAT to officially represent Solamon and now offer a diverse range of solar energy installations and options. "We know Mr Aboagye and his team will move effectively beyond the mining industry into other sectors across Ghana, and likely into nearby countries in the mid-term," says Solamon President Jay Yeo, upon recently arriving in Accra, "and we definitely appreciate GAT's enthusiasm and passion for solar."

    GAT Mining Ltd is a privately-owned company providing consulting in mining, construction, civil engineering and commodity brokering services with partners and partner offices around the world. "Our philosophy of building lasting relationships with every client is the foundation of all that we do," says Aboagye, "and we intend to play a major role in developing large and small solar farms across West Africa. Renewable solutions, such as solar, are not limited to businesses, but will impact locally as we watch communities achieve energy independence." GAT, along with its partners, currently offers a broad spectrum of product and services to companies involved in milling or grinding any type of ore.

    "Mr. Aboagye's years of experience and intimate knowledge of the mining industry in Ghana will be an invaluable asset to our Ghanaian operations," continues Yeo. "The mines operating here in Ghana are excellent candidates for our off-grid solutions. Usually located in remote areas, mining operations require massive amounts of energy in order to process thousands of tons of raw materials every year. This presents not only a strain financially on mine operators due to the ever rising price of diesel, but also logistically as every drop of fuel used must be transported, and stored. With the proper use of existing solar technology, our aim is to help alleviate these strains," he concludes.

    Solamon Energy Corp (GXG:SSL) typically offers a ground-mounted solar array of integrated cells over a package of land called the Apollo Acre™. The company also develops custom solutions with local partners to provide roof-mounted and parking lot systems that are easily augmented by micro wind turbine technology and other innovative features to supply renewable energy locally.
