CLARINGTON —
Orchard of Algoma combines apple planting with cuttingedge energy-
Saving technology.
This spring, Algoma will be equipped with new Tesla batteries to store energy when it comes to work.
The peak time of work the next day.
"We are very excited about it.
This will save us some money, reduce our carbon footprint and also benefit the environment, "said Kirk Kemp, owner of the orchard in Algoma, the large independent apple growers and packers run a gourmet market in Clarington, wholesale Apple and apple juice to companies such as Loblaws, Costco and Pepsi.
Six batteries, about 6 feet high each, will be installed on the lawn in front of the Algoma building near Darlington
Parking lot entrance Clark downline Road.
The Algoma Orchard signed an agreement with EnerNOC to install 1MWh lithium
Ion battery storage system.
This is the first energy storage project in Canada in the United States. S. company.
EnerNOC will purchase, install and operate the batteries on behalf of the orchard of Algoma and share the savings.
"By utilizing the energy stored in the battery, the Algoma orchard can reduce the energy consumption of the grid, which will contribute to the stability of the grid, Christian Weeks, vice president and general manager of flexible solutions at enerNOC, said by email: "This has no effect on the overall operation of the company. ".
Day and day are the peak of energy demand
When the demand for electricity is low, the peak time is overnight.
Demand response plan is an incentive for large energy consumers (
Manufacturing facilities, for example)
Adjust their energy use to reduce their peaktime use.
This is a way to reduce the cost of electricity for consumers and a way to avoid building additional power generation capacity in order to meet demand.
"I bet you can have a small air-conditioned battery next to the house in 10 years," Kemp said . ".
These batteries will join a series of other environmental initiatives in the orchard of Algoma.
The building is made of concrete and is used for more efficient heat insulation to reduce the loss of heating and cooling.
The prepress line has a unique water filtration system that saves millions of litres of water per year.
Algoma is also one of the few facilities to recycle all the water used by the packaging and juice factory.
There is also a huge solar system on the roof of the Clarington treatment facility that generates about 670 megawatts of clean electricity per year, which goes back to the electricity network.
Algoma's new battery system is expected to be installed and run by the end of June.
"This is the cutting-edge work that Algoma is doing now.
What's the great way to capture cheap electricity when we're worried about climate change, we don't use it, and we can't find a way to use it, "said Adrian Foster, Clarington mayor. CLARINGTON —
