CLEAN ENERGY TO PRODUCE CLEAN WATER
The kīsikāw pīsim solar farm in southwest Edmonton was officially energized by EPCOR on Tuesday morning. The 51-acre farm with 30,350 solar panels will provide the E.L. Smith Water Treatment plant with about 50 per cent of the power it needs to produce clean water. Electricity from the solar panels will go directly to the water treatment plan to produce drinking water for Edmonton and 65 regions around the city.
The total cost of the project is yet to be finalized but it will multi million for certain and is estimated to last 25 to 30 years and within that time frame pay for itself.
