1 KW/DC:Kilowatt of direct current energy; a unit measurement of the output of power.
2MW/DC: Megawatt of direct current energy; a unit measurement of the output of power.
3 Expected Annual Generationis the expected kWh of electricity produced from solar and the expected GJ of energy produced by biogas assets converted to kWh. It is calculated as an expectation of annual output based on analysis of either (or both) actual historical generation and IE projected inputs, including system efficiency and historical weather data. This figure is expressed in accordance with the Fund’s percentage ownership of the assets.
4 MWh:A measurement of energy usage; the amount of energy one would use if keeping a 1,000-kilowatt machine running for an hour.
5 The number of powered homes equivalency figure is calculated by dividing the Expected Annual Generation of the asset(s) by the average electricity use per Ontario household. The average electricity use per Ontario household is determined through Natural Resource Canada’s data on the total electricity consumption of the Ontario residential sector, divided by the total number of Ontario households.
