Solar Power Network installs 23,000 sq. ft. solar panel at Plaza Ontario

By Greentech Lead Team: Solar Power Network (SPN)
announced it has completed 230 kW 23,000 square feet of rooftop solar panel at
Plaza Ontario, Windsor. The rooftop solar panel system comprising 910 solar
panels supports Ontario’s goals of eliminating the province’s dependence on
coal-fired power and the related emissions.

“We’re very proud to participate in the Solar Power
Network, contributing efficient, clean and sustainable energy to Ontario’s
electrical grid. With no upfront costs or associated project costs for us, and
no structural impact to our rooftop, turning unused rooftop space into a source
for energy generation is a low-risk, high-reward undertaking. It makes good
business sense and good environmental sense,” said Paulo
Fontana, co-owner and GM of Plaza Ontario.  

Plaza Ontario’s Provincial Road location in Windsor will
actively monitored by Solar Power Network to ensure peak efficiency at all
times. Ontario’s FIT program enables energy collected to be distributed to the
local grid, and consumed by the building itself and then homes and businesses
closest to the site. EnWin Utilities, a Windsor’s Local Distribution Company, will
connect the solar generation capacity to local grids.

The solar program is owned and operated by Solar Power
Network. The project is expected to produce 264 MWh of power each year –
equivalent to displacing 132 metric tonnes of greenhouse gases, the root cause
of air pollution.

Solar Power Network uses the latest solar technology and
offers customers an innovative lower panel angle design, which results in no
structural impact to their rooftop while maximizing the revenue from their
leased out roof space.

“As Ontario continues to shift its priorities toward
more sustainable sources of energy, we have seen a growing interest in our
rooftop lease offer from similar companies across the province,” says
Peter Goodman, President and CEO, Solar Power Network.
