As a 100% municipally-owned company formed in 2014 by the towns of Antigonish, Berwick and Mahone Bay, AREA believes in the strength of collaboration. AREA has been developing solar photovoltaic projects in Nova Scotia since 2017, starting with 1.5 MW of commercial solar for 20 municipalities across the province through the Solar for Community Buildings Program.
Inspired by the opportunities presented through community solar and the experience AREA gained through these projects; they launched the development of their own Community Solar Gardens. Cumulatively AREA will build 9MW of Community Solar in the towns of Antigonish, Berwick and Mahone Bay. These Community Solar Gardens will unlock opportunities for people to participate in solar, without needing a roof and at a financial level of their own choosing.
With their projects and customer programs, AREA’s mission is to create a realistic path towards net zero in the supply and end-user sides of electrical power.
