“Carbon Zero” Energy project at The Ajax Riding Academy Ltd. (TARA)

The Ajax Riding Academy Ltd. (TARA) at 2677 Audley Road North in Ajax is very pleased and excited to announce the activation of the largest solar photovoltaic (PV) system in Durham Region. The ten kilowatt (10kW) solar system produces enough power to operate all the electrical requirements of TARA with enough spare capacity to supply other homes and businesses in the area.

TARA is very pleased to be the first equestrian facility in Canada to develop a “carbon zero” environmental footprint and we hope that others will follow our example.

TARA has completed a total energy management program that also includes energy efficient lighting and a building automation system.

The new lighting system is based upon T8 and CFL technology and the building automation system optimizes the lighting and heating systems for maximum performance and minimum energy usage.
