The problem of supplying electricity to remote communities in Canada is becoming challenging in particularx000D
when considering renewable energy sources. The restrictions on expanding the electric power network tox000D
supply electricity to these remote communities is considered economically infeasible. SNC Lavalin is currentlyx000D
interested in investigating the feasibility of using a mix of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar inx000D
addition to the energy storage systems to provide on-site generation mix for these communities. The proposedx000D
research project aims to provide a tool that can assist SNC Lavalin to optimally identifying the proper sizingx000D
and types of this mix of generation/storage. This project will be a joint effort on the part of UOIT and SNCx000D
Lavalin, and they will operate as a team throughout this project. The technology developed in this researchx000D
project will benefit Canadian electric power companies by identifying the most economical way of addressingx000D
the adequacy and the efficiency of supplying power to rural and remote communities in Canada. The outcomex000D
of this research project will significantly enhance the quality of life of Canadians in the remote communities byx000D
increasing the reliability, resiliency and efficiency of their electricity systems.
