Canada's largest solar farm to be built by 2010
POSTED: 3:14 p.m. EDT, April 27,2007

Canada will have its largest solar farm built by 2010, with more than one million panels on the ground to generate 40 megawatts of power.

The farm will be built by OptiSolar, a U.S. company based in California in the province of Ontario and is expected to contribute to the Ontario power grid by 2010, Canadian Press reported Thursday.

It will sell power to the Ontario government at a price of 42 cents a kilowatt-hour, as compared with the 11 cents a kilowatt- hour paid for wind power.

Sources say the solar farm is the largest of the 14 projects that the provincial government will announce under its standard offer program, which pays companies a premium for electricity generated by wind, solar and other forms of renewable energy.

The 14 projects will add more than 107 megawatts of power to the provincial grid.
