Industrial Roof

Solarize Energy’s most recently completed FIT Project is located on an industrial building on Henry Street in Brantford, Ontario. Comprising 858 solar PV panels, this system has a nameplate capacity of 214.5 kW and the net reduction in annual Green House Gases from this projects amounts to 244 tonnes of CO₂ annually (compared to producing electricity from coal-powered generators), which is the equivalent of removing 48 cars or light trucks off the road.

Solarize Energy is currently installing three solar systems on poultry barns owned by Lewis Farms just north of London (close to Lucan). Together, these three systems have a nameplate capacity of close to 250-kW and produce enough electricity to power approximately 25 Canadian homes. The net reduction in annual Green House Gases from this project amounts to 350 tonnes of CO₂ annually (compared to producing electricity from coal-powered generators), which is the equivalent of removing 65 cars or light trucks off the road.

Solarize Energy is currently installing a large solar system on five barn roofs at Van Osch Farms, the second largest cattle operation in Ontario. The 675 kiloWatt system (comprised of approximately 3,500 solar panels) will produce enough energy to power 125 Canadian homes for one year. The contribution to the fight against climate change is also significant: the annual reduction in Greenhouse Gases is equivalent to eliminating 728 tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere or removing 134 cars or light trucks off the road.

"We believe that Solarize can deliver that expertise to help us generate an additional source of revenue and at the same time contribute effectively to the fight against climate change” said Fred Van Osch, who runs Van Osch Farms along with Gerald Van Osch. “We are excited about partnering with Solarize and reducing our carbon footprint.” added Gerald.

We have recently installed a microFit project on an apartment building at  99 Winniett St. in Brantford. The installed solar panels will produce 5kW of power for every hour of sunshine
(or 5kWh of energy). This was the first microFIT project in Brantford.

Landlord John Tylak has come up with a way to generate more revenue from his 99 Winniett St. apartment building without raising the rent. He has installed 26 solar panels on the roof of the four-unit building to generate revenue for him and energy for the Ontario Power Authority. "It's just like adding another tenant to the building," Tylak said. "It's a static system, it doesn't move around and it doesn't require any maintenance.  And it comes with a 25-year warranty." (Brantford Expositor; April 7, 2010).

The installation was undertaken by PQI, our project management partner.

The event was also covered by CHCH Channel 11 (Hamilton) and the local Rogers Cable TV Channel in Brantford. Click here to view the news videos.

Solarize recently completed a FIT project, in association with its EPC partner PQI Global, on a commercial building on Woodslee Ave. in Paris, Ontario. This system was one of the first FIT projects connected to the grid. Comprising 92 solar PV panels, this system has a nameplate capacity of 20-kW and the net reduction in annual Green House Gases from this projects amounts to 30 tonnes of CO₂ annually (compared to producing electricity from coal-powered generators), which is the equivalent of removing 5 cars or light trucks off the road.

Solarize Energy has recently signed agreements with two sports buildings for the installation of solar systems. These projects represent a unique opportunity for these facilities to combine the benefits of an additional source of cashflow with a clear and public commitment to a cleaner environment and a significant contribution to Ontario’s green energy future.

More detailed information on these projects will be posted here shortly.
