SOLAR UPDATE
Strathcona Community League is pleased to announce that our 31kW solar array on our building is now producing electricity.  As we enter summer, the League is looking forward to the clear days, where free photons provide the League with energy.    

We want to celebrate with you and encourage everyone who is able to consider a micro-generation system on their building.  Visit our website to track our solar production and to get insight about how much energy one can produce.  At the time of writing (May 25), the panels had generated 10.73 MWh reflecting an offsetting of 7.89 tonnes of carbon.  (The environmental benefit is “calculated by the Universal conversion ratio formula. They include; Gasoline Offset, Equivalent Trees Planted, Reduced Carbon dioxide.”)

The system was made possible by a grant through the Alberta Municipal Solar Program.

We look forward to looking for future opportunities to save money and mitigate climate emissions as a League, and we hope that our work inspires others to take steps to address climate change. 

If you are interested in how the system is working on a given day, we have a direct link to the hall’s production at https://strathconacommunity.ca/solar-production/.
