Canada has 217 major solar energy projects producing power across the country. Canada has 341 wind energy projects producing power across the country. Canada ranks 24th in the world for installed solar energy capacity. Canada ranks 9th in the world for installed wind energy capacity.
Canada’s total wind, solar and storage installed capacity grew 46% in the past 5 years (2019-2024), including nearly 5 GW of new wind, 2 GW of new utility-scale solar, 600 MW of new on-site solar, and 200 MW of new energy storage.
There are also high-quality areas inland at different locations across Canada, including the southern Prairies and along the Gulf of St. Lawrence. No offshore wind farms have been built in Canada yet, and the development of coastal wind farms is limited because most of Canada’s coastline is in remote regions, away from the existing electrical grid.
Canada generates solar-powered energy from 142 solar power plants across the country. In total, these solar power plants has a capacity of 1726.6 MW. How much electricity is generated from solar farms each year?
