“Going solar” to reduce emissions at our Town Border Stations
SaskEnergy’s Town Border Station (TBS) 1 in southwest Regina has begun to generate enough solar power to offset its annual consumption. The conversion of the Regina station to generate solar power included the installation of 176 solar panels on-site. During the day, the panels will not only generate enough energy to power the station itself but will, at times, create excess energy for the province’s power grid. Once the sun sets, the station will draw power off the grid through a net metering agreement with SaskPower. The solar power system at TBS 1 has a total generation capacity of nearly...
