Introduction to CanSIA
CanSIA is the national trade association for the Canadian
solar energy industry:
• Represent approx. 650 corporate members nationwide.
Our mission and Strategic Objectives:
• Strengthen the Canadian solar industry, develop and expand
solar markets and remove market barriers.
In 2011, the Canadian solar industry:
• Employed a Canadian labour force of over 8,000 and
generated investment revenues approaching $2 billion.

Benefits of Solar Energy
• Solar energy is:
•
•
•
•
Abundant and Ubiquitous.
Clean and Reliable.
Scalable and Deployable.
Accessible to all Canadians.
"I'd put my money on the sun and
solar energy. What a source of power!
I hope we don't have to wait till oil
and coal run out before we tackle
that." - Thomas Edison

Solar Photovoltaics
Use physical properties of semi-conductors to convert
sunlight into electricity.
• Many examples of municipal
Pilot
and
Demonstration
projects and programs across
Canada.
• Significant
adoption
by
municipalities in Ontario’s FIT
program.
www.cansia.ca
8
Solar PV Pilot and Demonstrations
• Edmonton Solar-Electric Pilot Program:
• Municipal rebate program in 2010.
• For residential and non-residential sectors.
• Incented installation of approximately 140
kW (equivalent to 700 solar modules).
• Okanagan Centre of Excellence:
• 260 kW system (1,106 modules).
• Largest system outside Ontario.
• Learning tool for trades classes.
www.cansia.ca

Solar PV Feed-In Tariff
2,754 panels installed on two community centres Town
of Markham, York Region, ON:
• Thornhill and Angus Glen
Community Centres.
• 350 kW and 250 kW systems.
• Produce enough electricity
annually for 84 homes (~770
MWh).
• Municipality developing
several more projects in 2012.
Brian Bentz, PowerStream and Frank Scarpitti, Mayor of the Town of
Markham Thornhill flip the switch on the Community Centre in Markham.

Solar Water Heating
Captures solar radiation & delivers heating value on site:
• Small Systems:
• Domestic water, showers,
dishes, etc
• Large Systems:
• Where lots of hot water is
needed e.g. pools, multiresidential housing,
hospitals, car washes,
laundries.

Municipal Solar Water Heating Programs
• Halifax Solar City:
• $5 million pilot project to encourage
homeowners to install solar panels for
heating domestic hot water.
• Financed through property tax bills.
A Solar-heated neighbourhood
• Solar Colwood:
• $3.9 million pilot project with a goal of
whole community change toward energy
conservation & renewable clean energy.

Drake Landing Solar Community
Drake Landing Solar Community in Alberta is the first
of its kind in North America:
• Over 2,300 m2 of solar
collectors providing over
90% of the community’s
annual heating needs.
• 52 homes served via a
district heating network.
• Summer
solar
energy
stored in boreholes for use
in Winter.

Solar Air Heating – Open Loop
Enerconcept
Conserval
Matrix
Conserval
- Pre-heats fresh air intake
Conserval
- raises air temp. 10-45°C above ambient
-roof mount or wall install – can be used as cladding
-New construction or retrofit

15
Typical Applications
Heating impact of ventilation?
36 cfm per person
...like heating the air in 2 refrigerators
every minute – for every person
Solar Air heating optimal in
buildings with significant ventilation
- Maintenance garages
- Fire halls
- Recreation and pools
- Schools
- Multi residential housing
- Industrial
-Commercial
-Agricultural

Solar and Green Building
Different programs – similar goals
Potential LEED® Contribution
- Same system can contribute to multiple categories
- Contributes to recycled content credits where the solar energy
system is building integrated.
- New regional priority credits may be applicable
where energy issues are of increased importance
www.cansia.ca
18
On-Site Solar and LEED®
Sample Project:
- Building - 56% energy cost savings over typical NECB
- Solar thermal - 15% of building energy load
Direct solar energy LEED credit:
- 7 pts - On-site renewable energy (EA-C2)
- 9 pts - Optimize energy (EA-C1)
70% of the
energy used in
buildings is heat
energy
- NRCan
May elevate project to Silver or Gold & trigger
funding tied to energy performance
15% Solar energy savings annually

Hurdles to Deployment of Solar Technology
Mainstream wide-spread adoption faces challenges that
vary in magnitude from region to region:
•
•
•
•
Economic Hurdles.
Legal, Regulatory and Policy Hurdles.
Institutional Knowledge/Capacity Hurdle.
Technical Hurdles.
Smart policy and partnerships between all levels of
government and industry is required to accelerate the
deployment of solar technology.
www.cansia.ca
20
Municipal Policies and Programs
• Regulatory:
• Streamline permitting.
• Solar Ready requirements.
• Solar Obligations (i.e. the Merton Rule).
• Financial:
• Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE).
• Municipal Feed-In Tariffs.
• Municipal Renewable Energy Credits.
