Partners: Wolfville Farmers’ Market, Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency

The Wolfville Farmers’ Market is home to the largest solar project in the Town of Wolfville: a 20 kW system that powers the Market year-round. The solar installation is made possible thanks to support from Bullfrog Power and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA), a government organization responsible for creating economic growth in the Atlantic Provinces.

Wolfville Farmers’ Market completed the project with funding from Bullfrog Power and ACOA. The Market’s solar panels now reduce the facility’s emissions footprint by 16 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year and save the organization approximately $2,700 per year in energy costs.

All bullfrogpowered customers help fund these small-scale, community-led projects, including solar panels on schools and in Indigenous communities, education and training programs, and a cleantech accelerator.
