microFIT PV connection complete

Quantum's first microFIT grid connection

A Prince Edward County resident recently had their photovoltaic (PV)system connected to the electrical grid! Along with Quantum’s work on this job, there were numerous steps to take to get connected: the wiring of components by the master electrican, the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) inspection and finally, the Hydro One connection. With the recent introduction of the mircoFIT program, Quantum has already seen a 20% increase in demand for PV systems.

Kingston Housing Manager goes Solar

Kingston & Frontenac Housing Corporation (KFHC) has recently hired Quantum to install a 20 panel solar hot water system at the 101-unit building at 300 Conacher Drive. The system will reduce their hot water bills up to 50%/year, with a greenhouse gas reduction of approximately 14 tonnes/year. This is the second installation contracted to Quantum by the housing manager, the first being installed in November 2007 at 176 Wilson St.


microFIT Program Systems

Quantum recently installed a 3.06kW photovoltaic system in Odessa. The owner will be taking advantage of the new feed-in tariff (FIT) offered by the Ontario Power Authority (OPA), which sees customers selling their power back to the province at 80.2 cents/kWh. The program denotes that a minimum of 40% of the system components must be manufactured or produced in Ontario. Quantum is able to achieve this requirement, and is pleased to support Ontario industry. Read More…
