Our Project Portfolio

ST LAWRENCE ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK
OSP in Partnership with Arise Technologies of Kitchener Ontario installed the first Grid Connected Solar System in a Canadian National Park at St Lawrence Islands National Park located in Mallory town Ontario. The system, which consists of 44 solar panels, generates approximately 20KW of electricity a day, enough to reduce the annual electrical costs of the parks operations buildings by 30%.

ONTARIO POWER GENERATION
OSP was contracted to design and install a high water warning system at 2 hydro electric dams in eastern Ontario. Solar was used because the investment was less than installing new electrical power lines to the remote sites. The systems utilized a 250 watt solar array to maintain the charge in a 100 amp/hr battery bank that powered the warning systems.

TRAVEL LODGE HOTELS
An emergency backup system was installed to provide hall and stairway lighting in the event of a power failure. Ottawa Solar Power installed the system 1 week before the August 2003 blackout of eastern North America. It proved to be a major benefit that week.

FAIRMONT HOTELS
OSP designed and installed a solar power system to power remote chalets at Fairmont’s Chateau Montebello Property in Western Quebec. Dishwashers, HVAC system, lights and water pumps are examples of the electrical equipment in the chalets that the 16 panel 1.7KW solar array made power for.

RENFREW COUNTY BUS LINES
Located in Eastern Ontario, this transportation company, with over 300 vehicles in its fleet, is utilizing solar energy to compliment its radiant floor heating system in its 7000 square foot maintenance facility.
In partnership with the Federal Governments Renewable Energy Deployment Initiative (REDI), R.C.B.L was able to secure a 25% grant to implement and install the system. Using the Solar Max Solar to air heating system R.C.B.L is able to reduce its office heating costs by as much as 35% using renewable energies.

LANARK COUNTY STEWARDSHIP
OSP was contracted to design a solar electric system to provide power for electric fences and agricultural water pumping systems. Through the Ontario Governments Rural Clean Water Program, commercial farm operations must by law keep their cattle out rivers and lakes. This poses a challenge for watering the cattle. OSP uses solar energy to pump water out of the river or lake to a central drinking area for the cattle thus ensuring a clean and safe water course. OSP has systems like this successfully working all over Eastern Ontario.
