4 FAQs about Canada s solar energy storage configuration requirements

What types of energy storage are available in Canada?

There are three main types of energy storage currently commercially available in Canada: Storage is playing an increasingly important role in the electricity system by improving grid reliability and power quality, and by complementing variable renewable energy sources (VRES) like wind and solar.

What are Canadian grid-connected solar PV systems?

Most Canadian grid-connected solar PV systems are designed with the modest goal of reducing grid electricity use to some extent. Some projects have the more ambitious goal of achieving Net-Zero Energy (NZ) or Net-Zero Electricity performance using grid-connected solar PV.

How to maximize solar energy production in Canada?

Generally, Canadian rooftop solar PV energy production is maximized with azimuth as close to true South as possible and roof pitch angle somewhere between latitude and latitude-15°. Builders and architects often wonder whether changes to roof orientation and/or pitch to maximize solar PV energy production are justified.

What are the requirements for interconnection of energy storage systems?

Interconnection of energy storage systems, whether self-contained or other, shall be in accordance with supply authority requirements as per Rule 84-002. Additionally, a connection authorization is required as per ESA processes. For more information, refer to Bulletin 84-1-*, Interconnection of electric power production sources
