ALBERTA SOLAR FARM (Taverssolar Project ) Canada's largest solar panel project is poised to create more than 1,000 jobs at the peak of its construction in southern Alberta.
That’s according to Dan Balaban the co-founder and CEO of Calgary-based Greengate, which is developing and managing the project.
The project, which is receiving funding from Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, will be the size of 1,600 football fields and include more than 1 million solar panels.
https://www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-environment/canada-s-largest-solar-panel-project-to-create-more-than-1-000-jobs-in-oil-country-1.5666324 So a Copenhagen firm ( foreign ) along with ( stakeholders ) inconjunction with ( Greengate ) which is by the way, private firm - have set out to build a mega solar farm called - Taverssolar - in Southern Alberta. I can't see a thousand jobs created simply plowing a field and installing solar grids - but i can see a thousands jobs outside Canada making the solar panels - mine to product.
https://greengatepower.com/news-media https://www.traverssolar.com/ Let's ask,
what are the chances the silicon metal and wafers are ethically sourced from Canada ?
My guess is, zero odds.
We need an update from the junior..
More info please.
This Alberta Solar Project - should be sourcing the silicon from Canada, right ?
But.... ?
Again, not impressed with the structuring of green energies - seems its a scramble to set several projects in place without the tohught of, existing juniors with the supplies or resources - guess it's just easier ot rely on stakeholders as a shift from small investor to private sinks its teeth in deeper. Transfer of wealth.
This all points to....
resource control - whose assigning the resources with projects - sourcing resources elsewhere and involving outside large investments from stakeholders - i'd say were in a quantum shift - investing is completely diff than what it was.
We need a Canadian Resource Manager whose consciensious of sourcing Canadian metals and assigning them to Canadian Projects - it's no wonder our juniors are suffering.
My best guesstimate ?
Watch for the lithium brine projects switch up to, hydrogen. ( wink )
Just compare Southern Lithium stats on recoveries with any other DLE and the costs thereof to finish a completed project and it's no wonder why lithium has risen in price ot justify the costs to make the pure lithium - simple - jig jog of increasing the value of lithium to enable lithium production - but... my hunch says... DLE won't work due to - too many stages it needs to purify which will ultimately affect the revenues. Look at CYP, they went from Alkaline solution to Acid - lol - no one is asking what the costs will be using acid - vs - reusable salt chlorides. Not ot say that sulphuric acid wont work - most likely will - but the costs will be quite high due ot acid consumptions - but on the flip - there is a new tech that just came out mixing sulphur with lithium resulting in a better battery - at the end of the day.. .the costs to purify the lithium then to make a battery and then only to use another source to charge it - is not quite a green energy - lol.
Pssst.... ( junior )
Get into hydrogen, or, entertain a suped up solar cell that actually abosrbs more photons.
Cheers....
