NEWBORO I AND IV
SOLAR PROJECTS
The projects are located in Eastern Ontario between the towns of Westport and Newboro, and together will provide enough clean, renewable energy to power approximately 4,000 average homes in the province.
Newboro I and IV were completed in 2014 and will use the SunEdison Silvantis 320 watt modules and Unirac fixed-tilt racks. Each project had more than 250 skilled workers on site at the peak of construction activity.
Newboro I and IV are the fourth and fifth projects RES Canada has constructed for SunEdison, in addition to the 30MW Webberville Solar facility in Texas, and the SunE Rutley and Norfolk solar projects in Ontario, which are each 10 MW. The electricity from Newboro I and IV will be sold under a 20-year power purchase agreement with the Ontario Power Authority.
