The Brooklyn installation is slated for construction in the fall of 2026. While PowerBank serves as the lead developer, the project is owned and funded by the AI Renewable Flow-through Fund, shielding the company from direct capital expenditure. The venture is part of a broader 12.44 MW portfolio in the province, which includes additional sites in Petpeswick and Sydney developed in partnership with Trimac Engineering.
Financial backing for the C$14 million project includes a C$960,000 grant from Net Zero Atlantic and a matching C$960,000 award from the federal Smart Renewables and Electrification Pathways Program. Furthermore, the company anticipates receiving up to C$2.639 million through the federal Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit. Once operational, the farm is expected to generate enough electricity to power 628 homes annually, while delivering approximately C$3.86 million in lifetime savings to the Annapolis Valley community through a subscription-based model that avoids the need for private rooftop equipment.
