				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SolPowered Energy Corp. is pleased to welcome Elizabeth McDonald as Senior Advisor Corporate Development. Elizabeth is a highly accomplished individual with more than 20 years of leadership, management and trade association experience—most recently as an expert in the Canadian solar energy industry and a global advocate for sustainable, clean energy solutions.</p>
<p>“We welcome Elizabeth’s knowledge and background,” says Mike Perrault, Co-Founder of SolPowered.  “Not only has she held many leadership, senior and advisory positions, but she has also been instrumental in developing and promoting sustainable energy policies that will benefit Canadians for years to come.”</p>
<p>Prior to joining SolPowered, Elizabeth served as Executive Director and President of the Canadian Solar Industries Association (CanSIA), (2007-2011). During this time, she worked closely with the Ontario Government (Solar Task Force and FIT/Micro-FIT Advisory Committees), the Electricity Sector Council and the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (OSEA).  She was also named an Investment Canada Champion by the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT) and travelled extensively throughout North America and overseas as a solar advocate and spokesperson.</p>
<p>Elizabeth says, &#8220;I am excited to be working with a locally owned solar energy company.  SolPowered is exactly the kind of company that the Government of Ontario’s FIT Program envisioned.&#8221;</p>
<p>SolPowered Energy Corporation is a Canadian solar energy developer that installs, operates and maintains medium and large photovoltaic (PV) solar systems on building rooftops.  Named the winner of the Gold 2011 Ottawa Business Achievement Award for New Business of the Year and a finalist in the upcoming Prix d’excellence awards 2012 hosted by the Regroupement des gens d&#8217;affaires de la Capitale nationale (RGA), SolPowered is recognized as an innovator of renewable, sustainable and profitable green energy solutions—and dedicated to promoting and growing solar rooftop projects as a social, economic and environmental phenomenon across Canada and in other countries.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On the afternoon of Thursday January 26th, despite moderate cloud cover and a high of only -5 degrees Celsius, St Isidore Arena managed to produce a peak of 98.3kW out of a total maximum potential of 100kW. As we can see from the photo below, the shading from one row of panels does not touch the following row. We can also see how the HVAC and chimney do not cast shadows on the panels either, clearly demonstrating the expertise with which SolPowered has designed the system.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-727" title="jan26_peak" src="http://solpowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jan26_peak.jpg" alt="" width="610" height="338" /><br />
Also worth noting is that on January 15th, even with the panels completely covered by a thick blanket of snow, the Arena managed to operate at nearly half of its total efficiency, peaking at 43.1kW.<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-729" title="jan15_peak" src="http://solpowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/jan15_peak.jpg" alt="" width="619" height="311" /></p>
<p>All of this data was recovered using the custom monitoring solution that SolPowered has installed at the Arena, which is offered to all of its clients and provides detailed information on daily production.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-732" title="mon_jan26" src="http://solpowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/mon_jan26-720x398.jpg" alt="" width="628" height="347" /></p>
