It eyes buying at least 12.5% share in partner EPC firms of the 220MW solar plant.

Basic Energy Corporation inked a term sheet with Thailand-based Vintage Engineering Public Company for the possibility of buying a minimum 12.5% stake in two firms managing the EPC deal of a current 220MW solar power project in Minbu, Myanmar.
