Fuel Retail Solar Portfolio Program

ESG | Multi-Site Deployment | 5.6 MW

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Delivered a 5.6 MW off-site solar program for 50 fuel stations, generating CAD 1.5M annual savings and 7,300 tCO₂e reduction, scalable to 28 MW.

ROLE

Led pre-execution development, coordinating stakeholders across client, utility, consultants, and vendors to enable approvals, design finalization, and execution readiness.

RESULT & IMPACT

1

5.6 MW pilot capacity delivering CAD 1.5M annual savings

2

Enabled 50 fuel stations to transition toward 100% renewable electricity

3

Minimized operational disruption across active fuel stations

4

Enabled scale-up from 5.6 MW pilot to a ~28 MW program through subsequent tender in the same region

PROBLEM

Distributed portfolio of 50 fuel stations within a single LDC, creating multi-site aggregation and coordination complexity

Limited on-site solar feasibility due to space, safety constraints, and operational risks at fuel stations

On-site deployment required station shutdowns for assessment and strengthening, leading to revenue loss and extended approval timelines

Existing off-site solar models required adaptation for fuel retail operations and utility alignment

SOLUTION

• Implemented an off-site solar model under Group Net Metering, enabling centralized generation and energy offset across multiple fuel stations

• Developed a portfolio-based approach, aggregating 50 stations under a single solar asset to simplify execution and maximize scale efficiency

• Eliminated on-site risks by avoiding station shutdowns, structural modifications, and safety-related approvals

• Coordinated with utility (LDC) to enable multi-meter energy allocation and billing alignment across distributed assets

• Led stakeholder alignment across PSU, NGO, government, utility, and I&C partners to enable execution under compressed timelines
