Recent Work

We provided feasibility analysis, preliminary engineering design, and construction oversight for the first two utility-scale solar projects in Western Canada:

• SunMine (Kimberley, BC) — 1 MW developed on the reclaimed brownfield of the former Sullivan Mine, SunMine was owned by Teck and demonstrated how legacy industrial sites can be repurposed into high-performing solar assets. SunMine received the Engineers Canada National Award for an Engineering Project
• Tŝilhqot’in Solar Farm (West of Williams Lake, BC)— Canada’s first large-scale solar facility (1.25 MW) that is 100% owned and operated by a First Nation, built on a former sawmill brownfield site and advancing Indigenous energy sovereignty.

We are researching the implementation of dual-axis tracker at high latitudes.

We are carrying out extensive work on community solar in British Columbia, including program design, regulatory analysis, and implementation support:

• Research and technical–economic analysis of Indigenous Community Solar models, with a focus on Nation-led ownership, governance, and energy sovereignty.
• Expert analysis and evidence in British Columbia Utilities Commission proceedings on BC Hydro community generation rate design, including testimony on billing frameworks, cost allocation, and regulatory feasibility.
• Advisory support on community solar program design, translating technical and data complexity into solutions that regulators and utilities can approve.
