Sauble River Agrivoltaics Solar Farm Project Gets Endorsement from South Bruce Peninsula Council
The South Bruce Peninsula Council has endorsed a proposal for a solar farm development, Sauble River Agrivoltaics, near Allenford that aims to address Ontario's projected electricity demand increase between 2025 and 2050. Spearheaded by Compass Greenfield Development, the project integrates solar energy generation with agricultural practices, utilizing approximately 60 acres of leased rural land for sheep grazing and potential crop cultivation alongside power production, aligning with a growing trend in Canada and the US to combine renewable energy with sustainable farming methods.
