The Elmsley Solar Project, located near Lombardy in the Township of Rideau Lakes, comprises two 12 MWp sites. The sites were developed under the Government of Ontario’s Renewable Energy Standard Offer Program (RESOP), which encourages renewable energy production to help replace coalfired generation. The Elmsley Solar Project represents a different racking solution for EDF EN Canada, based on the company’s inaugural solar project in Arnprior, Ontario. The Elmsley sites are characterized by large deposits of surface rock, which required an innovative drilling and grouted pile solution.
