Saddlebrook Solar + Storage

COMMUNITY BENEFITS

The project is designed to deliver long-lasting value for communities. With Phase One now operational and planning underway for Phase Two, the project continues to support economic growth at the local, provincial and national levels.

Employment opportunities—Construction activity creates demand for a wide range of skilled trades and services, including equipment operators, electricians, mechanics, construction services, truck drivers, labourers and more. Phase One alone created approximately 300 jobs over the construction lifecycle.

Business opportunities—Construction supports local businesses by increasing demand for goods and services. Vendors interested in working with us can visit TCEnergy.com/Vendors to register as an interested local service provider. We award contracts to qualified construction contractors and work with them to provide local employment opportunities.

Annual revenue to support local services—During construction, the project generates tax payments to municipal, provincial and federal governments. Once fully operational, the project contributes ongoing annual tax revenue that helps support schools and hospitals, emergency services, recreation facilities, recycling programs and other local programs vital to sustaining communities. 

Investments in local communities—Through our ongoing engagement with local communities, we identify opportunities to help build stronger, more vibrant communities through our Build Strong program, which supports partnerships in the areas of safety, education, community and the environment.
