Centennial Community Solar Garden
The Town of Berwick has built a community solar garden to make solar accessible to everyone.
“The Town of Berwick continues to be a leader in clean, affordable, and renewable energy. The Community Solar Garden is another step toward the pursuit of providing 100% renewable energy to all Berwick Electric customers. Having the electricity generated from the solar garden delivered to all utility customers, will ensure solar is accessible to everyone, with all customers benefiting fairly and equitably.” - Don Regan, Superintendent Berwick Electric Commission
Annually, the Town of Berwick’s community solar garden will be equivalent to reducing 3859 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide, removing 839 gas-powered cars from the road or powering 543 Berwick homes.
The community solar garden projects have been funded in part by the Government of Canada, and the Province of Nova Scotia.
