We have evolved significantly over the past 15 years and so has the landscape for renewables. We have built and continue to maintain the majority of our solar projects in collaboration with our customers.

The Co-op has raised over $28 million in investments from its 800+ members, on its way to developing a portfolio of over $45 million of renewable energy projects. We are proud that CED Co-op is the first co-operative in Canada to become a public corporation, enabling these investments to be held in RRSP, RESP, TFSA and RRIF investment portfolios. Future projects under development for the Co-op include community-based net-metering; building-efficiency projects such as geo-thermal heating and cooling; EV charging as a service; plus many more.
