Building the World’s Largest Solar and BESS Facility: Key Takeaways with Solas Energy

CanREA welcomes the announcement on February 5, by the Hon. Jonathan Wilkinson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, of a phase two for the federal Greener Homes Initiative, which helps Canadians “Go Solar” and retrofit their homes to reduce their energy bills and GHG emissions. “Today’s announcement is important to the continued success of the residential solar sector in Canada,” said Vittoria Bellissimo, CanREA’s President and CEO.

The Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA) wishes to congratulate seven member companies who have been selected by Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) as part of the procurement of 1,784 MW of energy storage announced recently. “CanREA applauds the strong outcomes of the IESO’s LT1 procurement,” said Leonard Kula, CanREA’s Vice-President of Policy for Eastern Canada and Utility Affairs. “Ontario ratepayers will benefit from the reliability that these additional energy supply resources provide, especially as the Pickering nuclear station is removed from service mid-decade.”
