About The Project
The Travers Solar Project is the largest solar energy project in Canadian history. Located on approximately 3,300 acres of land eight kilometres southwest of the village of Lomond in Vulcan County, the project will include the installation of around 1.3 million solar photovoltaic modules and 153 inverter/transformer stations. At 465 MW, the project will generate enough power to supply more than 150,000 homes. Construction of the Travers Solar Project began in 2021 and the project continues to engage with landowners, the community, and regulators, and has initiated a $100,000 Community Fund.
