Solcan Ltd, a leader in the Canadian solar industry, is based in
London, Ontario. It manufactures specialized solar equipment such
as solar collectors and heat exchangers and since 1975 has
supplied solar hot water systems for installations across Canada
and in various sites overseas. The company was orginally a
research oriented company but the focus soon shifted from
research and development to marketing and sales;
Solcan Ltd. has subsequently specialized in turnkey solar heating
projects for various commercial, industrial, institutional and
residential applications. Solcan has also developed domestic
solar water heater packages and solar swimming pool heating
systems for residential customers. As sales grew at a rapid pace
in Canada, Solcan entered the export market. Solcan's particular niche in the solar market has been design-build solar water heating systems for commercial and institutional applications, varying from 25 to 250 square metres, including nursing homes, car washes, fitness centres, apartment buildings and other applications where there is a particular need for hot water. The market for solar products
disappeared in Canada in 1987 but is becoming active again, and
Solcan is preparing for it with new packaged solar water heaters.
Although it involves a different technology Solcan is also active
in response to the market demand for solar photovoltaic
equipment.
The basic solar product which Solcan manufactures is a flat
plate solar collector. The unique features of the Solcan solar collector
are the light weight, and the use of silicone to fasten the glass to the frame. The Solcan flat plate solar collector is incorporated into various packaged solar water heaters as well as design-build solar water heating systems.
The Renewable Energy Deployment Incentive, a new federal government program, has been available since 1 April 1998 and has provided incentives for commercial applications such as : nursing homes, hotels, motels, apartment buildings and buildings that use a lot of hot water.
