LAS continues to offer a turn-key solar
photovoltaic installation
service for rooftop
and ground-mount projects on municipal and other public sector
properties. LAS provides turn-key project deployment that
includes:
Solar Array Design & Installation
Feed-in Tariff (FIT) Contracts with the Ontario Power Authority
(OPA)
Other Legal Agreements
Connection to the electricity grid
A public information kiosk
Those interested can choose from the
following three financing options:
1. Joint Equity (Ownership is shared between program managers
and host)
2. Sole Proprietorship (Host solely owners installation after
program managers install and connect to the grid)
3. Rooftop Lease (Host rents available roof space to the program
managers who install, own and operate the panel installation)

Energy and its first municipal Solar PV projects:
The Feed-in Tariff (FIT) program, which is the cornerstone of the
Green Energy and Green Economy Act, provides
municipalities with a guaranteed 20-year Revenue
Stream. The LAS Essex Energy Solar Photovoltaic Program has
been designed to take advantage of transmission connection queue-exempt
facilities in the following size range:
Small C&I / MUSH (10
– 250 kW) or 100 ft2 to 26 000 ft2
Medium C&I / MUSH (250 – 500 kW)
26 000 ft2 to 52 300 ft2
(Note: Ranges based on average building type on an average site. A
feasibility study is first performed to determine the specifics before
moving forward with system design)
Why Go Solar?
Reduce energy costs - Reduce utility bills & operating
costs
Reduce Carbon Footprint – Meet corporate sustainability goals
in increasingly carbon-constrained world
Safe, Attractive Investment – Comparable to Bond but with
higher
Solar costs have decreased 10-20%-Decreased costs in silicon, key
ingredient for crystalline solar panels; other commodity costs decrease
(steel, copper, etc)
Green companies have competitive advantage
–“Green” companies, products, and services gaining
wider appeal to end consumers.
