Case Studies Sunny Shores Solar Farm (Oakville Hydro) Overview Location: System Size: Project Type: Scope: Picton, Ontario 14 MW DC Utility scale ground mount Full Engineer-of-Record Challenge Endura s Approach Value to the Client The developer had procured a very large project site and wanted to maximize the energy yield of the plant, however a low lying region in the middle of the site limited options due to frequently flooding during spring runoff. Endura Energy developed a design utilizing a 1000 V DC system that allowed a 140% DC:AC oversize ratio and utilized only six inverters. The entire site was maximized through a redirection of run off flows around the solar array and through a culvert under the site. The developer was able to fully utilize the vast project site and maximize their project investment.
Heritage Green Retirement Home (City of Hamilton) Overview Location: Hamilton, Ontario System Size: 100 kw solar / 180 kwh energy storage Project Type: Flat roof solar with on-grid/off-grid alternate load battery storage Scope: Electrical Engineer-of-Record Challenge Endura s Approach Value to the Client Client wished to have a grid connected rooftop solar project but was advised by the utility that there was no available grid capacity in the area and that grid upgrades would take several years. Endura Energy designed the largest non-military hybrid offgrid solar PV and energy storage system in Ontario to power the heating and cooling rooftop units in the building. In times during low solar generation, the loads are automatically transferred back to the grid until solar energy yields come back up. The retirement home was able to meet its objective of going solar despite the fact that they could not connect to the grid. The hybrid solar PV and battery backup system is able to provide significant peak shaving of the building s electrical energy costs. Additionally, the system was designed to be converted into grid connection mode once grid capacity is made available by the utility. Case Studies
