MNO partnership successfully reduces carbon monoxide emissions – MNO

On August 25, the Métis Nation of Ontario-BrightRoof Solar LP (MNO-BR), Ontario Solar Power (OSP) and Calvary Church completed a 190 kW solar project that will reduce the emissions footprint of Ontario’s electricity system by approximately 50 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually.

Located in Peterborough, the Calvary Pentecostal Church has 828 solar panels on the roof. The panels will generate 228 kW of electricity, which is enough to power 26 Ontario households for a year.

MNO-BR leased Calvary Church’s roof in order to install the panels, taking part of Ontario’s Feed-In Tariff program for solar power.

Started in 2009 by the Government of Ontario, this program allows individuals and companies to develop renewable energy projects connected to Ontario’s power grid, while receiving a fixed price per kilowatt hour for the energy produced.
