Carlow-based Solar PV Rooftop Developer, Solarstream, Announces Joint Venture with US & UK Solar Farm Developers – Heliofidem

Solarstream, a prominent Solar PV rooftop developer based in Carlow, is excited to unveil its strategic joint venture with renowned US & UK Solar Farm Developers – Heliofidem. The collaboration, named Heliostream, aims to develop an impressive portfolio of 200MW of solar PV ground-mounted Solar Farms in Ireland over the next two years.

This joint venture builds upon the strong foundation laid in 2018 when Solarstream’s Chairman, Paul Browne, initiated a relationship with Ryan Lu, Head of Business Development at Heliofidem UK. The culmination of this partnership is Heliostream, a venture with a shared vision for advancing solar energy initatives.

Expressing his thoughts on the collaboration, Paul Browne, the founder of Solarstream, said, “Having worked with Ryan and the Heliofidem Team from Taiwan since 2018, this is a natural progression of our business relationship. Their recent development and commissioning of 29MWs of Ground Mounted Solar in the UK gives us the skillset and depth of experience to deliver and commission the portfolio we are developing in Ireland, as well as providing access to globally sourced development funding.”
