Is your company an owner or potential investor in an Ontario-based solar project?
Almost all of the utility-scale solar projects in Ontario were constructed between 2008 and 2015. Since then, the combination of rapid developments in technology and declining cost curves have created opportunities for the economics of these projects to be improved, while still complying with their PPA contract terms.
Zenith Power leverages our network of industry specialists to provide a complete turnkey solution. With 20-year power purchase agreements underlying the economics of these projects, there is a finite window for project owners to take advantage of these upgrade opportunities.
