The Agricultural Clean Technology (ACT) Program supports the adoption of clean technologies in agriculture- including solar – that help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Eligible recipients will have access to non-repayable contributions for projects that are at least $50,000 in total cost. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada will contribute up to 50% for projects with for-profit recipients and up to 75% for not-for-profit recipients. This funding stream will extend over five years, from 2021 to 2026, but funds will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

In this online information session, listen to Daren Crawford from Otter Energy share how the ACT program can be used to support the inclusion of solar energy technologies in your farm plan, go through a real life example of one of our members, and answer any questions you have about on-farm solar energy systems.
