Edmonton is one of the sunniest cities in Canada, receiving approximately 2,300 hours of sunlight per year. Therefore, solar panels have the potential to fulfill a high percentage of electricity needs. Although electricity consumption constitutes only 16% of the total energy usage in Edmonton, it contributes approximately 40% of greenhouse gas emissions which makes it an appealing target when looking to reduce carbon footprint, hence the Edmonton Solar Program.
As knowledge about our effects on climate change spreads, there is an ever-increasing demand for clean and sustainable electricity. As such, efficient and affordable solutions in the solar space, such as panels and storage, are more crucial than ever. With that said, this summer there will be a new player on the scene in Canada, the APX High Voltage Growatt certified indoor battery, which comes in three different types of energy storage capabilities: arbitrage, backup, and off-grid. Let’s talk about the difference.
