The generated electivity will be connected to the local power utility of Welland Hydro Electric under the Ontario feed-in-tariff programme.
Steven Huang, i-Energy CEO said: “We are pleased to partner with the City of Welland and Welland Hydro Electric for their renewable energy needs. This project underscores i-Energy’s commitment to Ontario’s renewable energy development. This project can be a model for other municipalities to reposition otherwise non-productive land into solar energy production sites.”
This project has a commercial value representing the company’s expanding strategy beyond the traditional residential solar installations.
