(1888PressRelease) March 17, 2012 - Toronto - After conducting and concluding an extensive executive search, Solamon Energy CEO Graeme Boyce proudly announced today the company has appointed Mr Michael Mitchell to the position Senior Vice President - Mexico. According to Boyce, Mitchell in the short-term will be based in the Solamon Head Office located in Toronto, tasked with fostering relationships within government ministries, civic administrations and leading businesses in Mexico, as well as requisite regulatory and utility officers. Mitchell brings to the company an extensive background in integrated marketing for such vibrant brands as Kyocera Communications and Virgin Mobile.

Mitchell will report directly, effective immediately, to Solamon President Jay Yeo, who will in tandem shortly unveil a Pan-Caribbean strategy across the digital mobile industry to power their remote cell sites, and will deliver mid-term revenue by marketing in its various evolving forms the Apollo Acre™ across numerous Mexican states. "We have every confidence in Mr Mitchell, given his contacts not only in Mexico but around the world, to begin prioritizing from among many existing markets and creating the necessary partnerships needed to design and successfully commission each new Apollo Acre™, as well as maintain them in the future and keep them secure," Boyce adds.

"We recognize Mr Mitchell comes to us with process-driven expertise and requisite cultural sensitivity as a seasoned business traveler, as well as the ability to professionally present value propositions at the highest level throughout the Sunbelt," he explains, "but we remain focused and we now look forward to delivering large solar arrays across open fields and parking lots alike in each of the Mexican states." Further, Solar Power Mexico 2012 is a green growth conference taking place in Mexico City on May 15 and 16, 2012, with the intention of bringing together influential individuals and businesses from all over the world interested in environmental issues, solar resources and sustainability.

Solamon provides a fully managed solution for its Apollo Acre™, a turnkey process from beginning to end including site inspections, project design and development, as well as addressing requisite environmental and local permitting, 3rd party engineering, procurement and construction, as well as system testing and eventual commissioning, security and maintenance.

The company is excited to deliver turnkey power plants using renewable solar energy as a resource to forward-thinking countries, and develop mutually beneficial and long-term relationships around the world. "It's no secret, our executives are certainly looking for local partners to manage each new Apollo Acre™ array," Boyce concludes. "However, our partners must also be willing to establish and operate a suitable post-implementation maintenance program, especially in collaboration with government agencies who've offered to provide standards and training certification criteria especially in the growing Carbon Credit market."

Solamon Energy typically offers a ground-mounted solar array of integrated photovoltaic cells over 5 acre packages of land, which is called the Apollo Acre™. The company now also designs and installs 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.
