The on-grid power business designs and builds ground and rooftop-mounted solar power plants for developers under the name 'Solar EPC Services'.

"These divestitures will enable us to focus on our vision to become the global leader in signals and solar LED illumination for infrastructure."

Carmanah has engaged Canaccord Genuity to advise on the divestiture of Go Power!, while Alexander Capital Group will consult on the divestiture of the Solar EPC business.

Carmanah Technologies CEO John Simmons said: “These divestitures will enable us to focus on our vision to become the global leader in signals and solar LED illumination for infrastructure.

“The proceeds of the divestitures will allow us to accelerate organic growth initiatives, make more substantive investments in innovation and support our continuing effort to acquire leading contenders in the signals space.”
