Calgary holds the distinction of being the city with the most sunny days in Canada at an average of 333 days per year. ENMAX Energy Corporation today announced the launch of its new rooftop Solar Demonstration Centre at its corporate headquarters to harness the power of the sun and evaluate leading solar technologies.

We are evaluating their performance to identify the best solar technologies for Alberta to make this new energy-efficient offering an easy choice for our customers and a solution for a more sustainable future.”

The demonstration centre will evaluate the performance of seven different solar-thermal and photovoltaic solar panels in our climate.
