Secure Self-Storage in Ontario, Canada, Completes Solar-Panel Installation

Secure Self-Storage in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, recently completed its rooftop solar-panel installation. The 300-kilowatt system at 2605 Summerville Court was designed and installed by Endura Energy Project Corp. on behalf of panel developers Endura Energy Developments Inc. and SolarShare Co-op.

“Another successful project in partnership with Endura Energy gets us closer to achieving our mission overall, which is to speed Ontario’s transition toward a sustainable future, one where we have electricity that’s generated by sources that are non-polluting and safe,” said Mike Brigham, president of SolarShare, the long-term owner and operator of the system, according to a press release.

This is the second project commissioned in a portfolio of 2.7 megawatts in projects developed in partnership between Endura Energy Developments and SolarShare. The projects were made possible under the Ontario’s feed-in-tariff (FIT) program in which solar operators sell the power they generate under a fixed-price, 20-year contract. The portfolio, which comprises five rooftop projects across the Greater Toronto Area, is expected to be fully commissioned by early 2015.

“It has been a great feeling to commission our second of five rooftop-solar projects we were awarded under the FIT 2.1 program,” said Cameron Steinman, president of Endura Energy Project and director of Endura Energy Developments. “We have worked with many of these landlords since 2009, and it is exciting for all parties involved to see the systems generating electricity.”

Endura Energy Developments is jointly owned by an affiliate of Endura Energy Project, a solar-focused engineering, project-management and consulting company based in Toronto, and a subsidiary of Soventix Canada Inc., a global solar-development company headquartered in Germany. Endura Energy Developments and its owners have designed, consulted and developed a number of solar-photovoltaic projects across Ontario.

SolarShare is a nonprofit cooperative that enables Ontario residents to invest in community-based, solar-energy installations across the province. By offering bonds backed by large solar systems, the organization provides financial, environmental and social returns to its members, according to the release. SolarShare is a project of TREC Renewable Energy Co-operative, a nonprofit cooperative incorporated in 1998.

In addition to its Mississauga location, Secure Self-Storage has a facility in North York, Ontario, Canada.
