Markham, ON studies the impacts of decentralized energy generation with Power.House Hybrid Pilot

Markham, ON Power.House Hybrid Pilot Decentralized Energy

In Progress

Ten homes were selected for energy upgrades by Alectra and Enbridge Gas. Rooftop solar installations, on-site batteries, and hybrid heating systems were included in these upgrades. Qualifying homeowners received EV chargers to power their plug-in vehicles. A virtual power plant monitors real-time energy consumption, switching between in-home and grid energy based on current costs. City officials will use pilot results to shape home energy programs in its bid for net-zero emissions by 2050.
