Borqs Technologies’ Solar Power Subsidiary Expands Renewable Energy Infrastructure in Kalaeloa of Oahu, Hawaii

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Borqs Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BRQS, “Borqs”, or the “Company”), a global provider of 5G wireless solutions, Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, and innovative clean energy, with global operations in the U.S., India and China, today announced that its solar energy subsidiary, Holu Hou Energy LLC (“HHE”), a provider of design to service solar plus energy storage systems, including a breakthrough energy-sharing product for the Residential and Multi-Dwelling Unit residential building markets, announces that it has signed a $2.5M sale agreement and contract for construction of a renewable energy and energy storage system at the Mahana multi-family residential property located in Barbers Point.

The Kalaeloa area has historically experienced high electricity rates and thus has been a target for introduction of renewable energy over the last several years. Under the agreement, HHE will construct what is a 2nd Phase to the Mahana property, bringing the total amount of solar there to approximately 640kW. In addition, the expansion at Mahana will incorporate 1.1 MWh / 284 kW of energy storage, which in addition to serving the needs of the residents, will also participate in the Hawaii Battery Bonus Program approved by the Hawaii Public Utility Commission in June 2021.

The former Naval Air Station Barbers Point was closed in 1999. Since that time the Barbers Point area and Kalaeloa has been a major target for redevelopment by State and private parties, including grid infrastructure and housing improvements. The Mahana Phase 2 installation is contracted under a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) that HHE has sold to a 3rd Party Financial Investor.
