you can participate in a greener tomorrow, today.

in an effort to reduce ontario’s reliance on non-

renewable electricity generation, new legislation

has made it possible for commercial businesses,

ReiTs, and other organizations to directly

benefit from solar energy projects. specifically,

by leveraging their facilities’ unused roof space

and/or vacant land to build and operate a solar

panel array, organizations can build a new

revenue stream while helping to save the planet.

sunedison offers turnkey solutions to launching

solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, either through

the direct sale of equipment, or through a fully

managed approach that removes the burden of

system financing, construction, monitoring, and

maintenance. The premise of this approach is

simple: you lease your facilities’ roof space and/or

land to build and operate a solar panel array.

You bear no responsibility or burden.

You simply collect a cheque each month.

Start earning revenue without diSruption to your own operation.

solar PV systems can be permitted/installed

faster than any other type of renewable energy

power plant. Within months, you’ll receive the

financial benefit.

What’s more, because PV systems are quiet

and visually unobtrusive, you won’t experience

disruption to your operation. And, they are

reliable over the long term because there are

no moving parts.

sunedison will be a true steward of your

roof-top/land, using the utmost care in design,

implementation and maintenance to protect

your assets. Perhaps that’s why our customers

come back—again and again. in fact, 44% of

our customers have more than one PV system.
