| Grand Erie board to make history with rooftop solar |
|
BRANTFORD, ON, June 2 /CNW/ - Pauline Johnson Collegiate & Vocational School (PJC&VS) will become one of the first schools in Ontario to retrofit its rooftops with solar photovoltaic (PV) installations. The initiative is part of the Grand Erie District School Board's new solar-energy program. Grand Erie is both one of the first school boards, and the largest board to date in Canada, to take this step. In partnership with Ameresco Canada Inc., the board's longtime school-renewal and green-energy partner, Grand Erie is preparing to further reduce its carbon footprint through the Ontario Power Authority's Feed-in Tariff (OPA FIT) program. It is anticipated that 23 selected schools will provide enough solar energy to power approximately 385 homes annually, while generating revenue for the Board, which will then be used to support student achievement. Grand Erie, has a long-term commitment to employing "green" practices, and continually promotes conservation practices throughout the system and in the community. Students and staff already help to reduce energy and water waste: they also recycle, compost and actively participate in Earth Hour and other environmentally-focused activities. The benefits of solar power go beyond providing a guaranteed revenue stream by offering an educational component and other community benefits. |
