\u00a0<\/span>En septembre 2023, l\u2019\u00e9cole a fait installer vingt-quatre panneaux solaires de 450 watts fix\u00e9s au sol. Les panneaux sont install\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019aide de semelles de b\u00e9ton et sont inclin\u00e9s \u00e0 un angle de 45 degr\u00e9s pour capter le montant maximal de soleil.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Les panneaux alimentent un syst\u00e8me de chauffage g\u00e9othermique pour une serre de 30 par 60 pieds, qui permettra \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9cole de cultiver des l\u00e9gumes \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9nergie renouvelable pour la caf\u00e9t\u00e9ria, les cours de cuisine et la banque alimentaire de la communaut\u00e9. Le projet est appuy\u00e9 par PEDVAC, un groupe communautaire \u00e0 but non lucratif situ\u00e9 au 12 rue Church, Port Elgin, Nouveau-Brunswick.<\/p>\n

Fundy Solar a entam\u00e9 l\u2019installation t\u00f4t en \u00e9t\u00e9 2023, une fois que les permis d\u2019\u00c9nergie NB ont \u00e9t\u00e9 approuv\u00e9s. Wheeler Electric a fait les liaisons \u00e9lectriques.<\/p>\n

The system was hooked up to a net meter and became operational in early fall. \u00a0Net metering allows any additional power generated by the panels to go back into the grid and create credits that the school can use in the winter. The long-term plan is to make the solar system off-grid so that the greenhouse can be powered even during power outages from winter storms.<\/p>\n

\u00a0In September 2023, twenty-four ground mounted 450 watt panels were installed. The panels have concrete footings and are placed at a 45-degree angle to capture maximum sunlight.\u00a0 The panels will power a geothermal heating system for the 30 x 60 ft greenhouse, allowing the school to grow vegetables with renewable energy for the school cafeteria, culinary classes and the local food bank. The project is sponsored by PEDVAC, a non-profit community group located at 12 Church Street, Port Elgin, NB. The system is south-facing toward the rear of the school, near the food forest. Fundy Solar began the installation in early summer 2023 after the permits from NB Power were approved. Wheeler electric made the official electrical connections.
