Phase I of this project will have a capacity of 41 megawatts and is expected to be complete by mid-2013.<\/p>\n<p>In late December 2012, OCI Solar Power announced the signing of an engineering, procurement and construction agreement with Renewable Energy Systems Americas Inc. (RES Americas) for the Alamo I project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe development of Alamo I is an exciting and highly anticipated project,\u201d said Tony Dorazio, president of OCI. \u201cIts long-term impact on the area \u2013 boosting the economy and creating jobs \u2013 reinforces our commitment to form valuable and trusted relationships with the communities we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once all phases of the project are complete, the solar development is expected to create more than 800 permanent jobs, according to an official statement by the developer. In the summer of 2012, OCI signed a 25-year power purchase agreement with CPS Energy to build 400 megawatts of photovoltaic plants in and around San Antonio, the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/sanantonio\/news\/2013\/01\/15\/oci-solar-power-kicks-off-first-phase.html\">San Antonio Business Journal<\/a><\/em>\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n<p>The $100 million project will provide enough electricity for nearly 70,000 local households, or about 10 percent of San Antonio\u2019s customers.
