Red Deer College Alternative Energy Initiative

As leader of one of the largest alternative energy installations in Alberta’s post-secondary world, Clark Builders partnered with ATCO and supporting consultants to design and execute a series of customized energy solutions that includes a 1MW combined heat and power cogeneration unit, a 1MW recreation facility rooftop solar array, a unique 105kW solar pedway, exterior lighting LED retrofits and an assortment of rooftop solar arrays. The project also includes the construction of a LEED Silver Alternative Energy Lab with solar demonstration arrays where students can learn from various types of installations. The project’s energy solutions were designed to offset approximately two-thirds of the College’s existing annual energy consumption.
