Rooftop Solar: Best Practices

A multimodal event mapping for effective knowledge transfer
The Ontario Government’s Feed-in Tariff Program and related initiatives have produced a groundswell of new developments in commercial rooftop solar power generation—involving not only cutting-edge photovoltaic technologies and implementation techniques, but also novel co-ordinations of diverse stakeholders, including developers, installers, building owners, aggregators, investors and government.
For many development-based businesses, at least some facets of such projects remain frontier territory, with best practices established “on the ground, or simply not yet broadly propagated. The Rooftop Solar: Best practices for developers event held at MaRS on March 24, 2011 covered these issues. The outcome was this innovative web tool (or interactive repot), composed of interactive diagrams, videos and slides that document the event.
