Solar Construction – Construction of Canada’s largest solar farm will resume next month. Spokesperson Peter Carrie says First Solar, which purchased former developer Opti-Solar earlier this year, has tweaked some of the engineering aspects of the 80 megawatt project. Between 2 and 3 hundred construction workers will be on site at Churchill Line and Highway 40 at peak times. One noticeable change will see the solar panels mounted on steel posts rather than cement bases.
