RE: Legal Solar Project
Dear Neighbour;
Canwest Solar Development Corp and Starlight Energy are proposing to construct a solar energy facility with 125 megawatts of total generating capacity (the “Project”). The Project area is approximately 8 km west of the Town of Legal on privately owned land.
The Project would generate enough renewable energy to avoid approximately 145,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to power over 38,000 homes.
Project Information Package
Included with this letter are documents that provide additional information about the Project including:
- a newsletter with greater detail about the proposed Project;
