Toronto City Council has adopted an ambitious strategy to reduce community-wide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Toronto to net zero by 2040 – 10 years earlier than initially proposed. The City’s 2040 target is one of the most ambitious in North America.

The City’s first solar PV and energy storage project was installed at Toronto Paramedic Services Station 46. The system offsets a portion of the site’s electricity consumption and provides back-up power in the event of a power outage.

The system comprises of:

10 kW of solar capacity on the south-facing wall and rooftop

27kWhr of stored energy LiFePO4 battery

Excess electricity generated by the site is exported to the grid. The City is looking to install similar projects in other City owned buildings. This will help meet the TransformTO Net-Zero Strategy target of 37MW of renewables by 2030.

There is a huge requirement for renewable energy in Toronto. We are cooperate with a local energy storage company providing 1MWH LiFePO4 Battery Energy Storage System.

The system is from CATL.

The 314Ah CATL LiFePO4 battery is new designed, original from the 280Ah LiFePO4 cells. they both have same dimension but 12% more capacity. the new 314Ah CATL LiFePO4 battery is 1004.8WH, while weight is only 5.49kg. the energy density is as much as 183wh/kg.

Here is specification of CATL Battery 314Ah

Packing List of 1MWH CATL LiFePO4 Energy Storage System and 314Ah LiFePO4 Battery Cell

The total weight of them is 15030kg and we shipped them by a 40 feet container from  Hongkong port to Toronto. it was shipped by MSC on 24th, May, 2023 and would be firstly arrived Prince Rupert port on 16th, June, 2023 and then transported by railway to Toronto.

All of the batteries and 1MWH ESS are packaged by DG packages with pallets.
