Powering Sustainability at the University of Victoria

The University of Victoria is taking another major step toward sustainability with a solar installation at the Engineering and Computer Science Building (ECS) and its expansion, along with a future system planned for the new High Bay Research and Structures Lab (HBRSL), which is currently under construction.

Hakai Energy Solutions has completed the installation of 177 high-efficiency solar modules on the Engineering and Computer Science Building. This system will generate clean electricity to support the university’s campus energy strategy, reduce operational costs, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

Looking ahead, we will be installing an additional ~225 kW DC capacity on the ECS Expansion & High Bay Research and Structures Lab once construction is complete. This additional solar includes a BIPV canopy on the ECS Expansion and a vertical façade solar installation on the High Bay facility.

Beyond clean energy generation, the project also serves as a hands-on educational resource. Students have opportunities to observe and analyze system performance, gaining practical insights into renewable energy systems, energy efficiency, and sustainability in action. The installation helps transform campus infrastructure into a living laboratory for applied learning.

Benefits of the UVic Solar Project

◆Sustainable Impact – Supports the university’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and advancing climate action.

◆ Reduced Energy Costs – Lowers electricity expenses and contributes to long-term operational savings.

◆ Educational Opportunities – Provides students with real-world experience in renewable energy applications and energy monitoring.

This project is part of UVic’s broader commitment to integrating sustainable practices across campus infrastructure and serves as a model for clean energy adoption within educational institutions.

At Hakai Energy Solutions, we are proud to support initiatives like this, helping universities and communities across British Columbia transition toward a more sustainable, energy-efficient future.

Clayoquot Wilderness Resort: Award-Winning Clean Energy Microgrid ☀️

In August 2024, Hakai Energy Solutions completed an off-grid solar and battery microgrid at Clayoquot Wilderness Resort, one of B.C.’s most remote retreats. The system features 1,512 solar panels (824 kW) paired with a 1.6 MWh battery storage system, reducing diesel consumption by 80% and offsetting roughly 480,000 kg of carbon annually.

With this system, the resort can:
◆ Store and use clean energy efficiently
◆ Ensure reliable, quiet power in an off-grid environment
◆ Lead in sustainable, resilient hospitality

This was Hakai’s largest off-grid project to date and was recognized as Electrical Contractor of the Year at the Vancouver Island Building Industry (VIBI) Awards in 2025. The award celebrated the technical complexity of installing B.C.’s largest off-grid solar and battery microgrid in a location accessible only by seaplane or boat, highlighting Hakai’s commitment to sustainability, resilience, and innovative clean energy solutions.

Powering Newton Cove Resort with Clean, Reliable Energy

Located in Esperanza Inlet, Newton Cove Resort is a floating, off-grid coastal destination with quick access to some of BC’s premier salmon and halibut fishing, just minutes from the open Pacific. Operating in a remote marine environment, the resort relies on dependable, around-the-clock power to support daily operations and guest comfort.

To meet these demands, Hakai expanded an existing renewable energy system originally designed and installed for the resort. The latest upgrade adds 64 kW of solar across 134 modules, along with a third 234 kWh battery bank, increasing on-site generation and storage capacity while integrating seamlessly with the existing system to improve reliability and reduce generator use.

This upgraded system enables Newton Cove Resort to:
◆ Generate and store more clean energy on a floating platform
◆ Deliver consistent, reliable power in a fully off-grid environment
◆ Reduce generator run time and operational emissions

Solar is about more than sustainability; it’s about energy security, reliability, and performance in demanding coastal conditions. Hakai’s integrated solar and battery solutions are built to power remote and floating facilities with confidence.
