Rooftop Solar Gaining Ground in Sarnia-Lambton.

From Barbara Simpson, Sarnia Observer

More Sarnia-Lambton homeowners are now plugging their very own rooftop solar panels into Ontario's energy grid after a growing Ontario solar start-up has expanded its reach into the region.

About 20 Sarnia-area homeowners have signed up for renewable energy contracts so far this year through Unconquered Sun, said Sean Moore, founder and director of operations for the Tecumseh-based solar energy company.

“We're increasing that number by leaps and bounds,” he said Thursday. “This is the first year we've really marketed in Sarnia.”

Expansion efforts come after Sarnia's Bluewater Power became the first Ontario utility to buy a renewable energy company with its purchase of Unconquered Sun in 2015.

Moore said Sarnia is an ideal location for rooftop solar projects because the area has transmission lines capable of accepting the additional solar generation.
