Canada's largest solar farm gets approval for southern Alberta

A Calgary-based company has received regulatory approval to build a massive solar farm, the largest facility of its type in Canada, in southern Alberta. Greengate Power Corp., which has already developed close to 600 MW of wind power projects in Alberta and Ontario, plans to begin construction on its Travers Solar project in 2020. The $500-million project will be located on 1,900 hectares of grazing land near the village of Lomond in Vulcan County. It’s projected to generate 400 MW of electricity, making it one of the world’s largest operating solar energy projects.
