(Solar Wall photo)The Rainy River District School Board has one of two solar projects up and running.
The panels are on the roof of J.W. Walker School in Fort Frances with a second project planned for later this year at Fort Frances High School.
Manager of Plant Operations Raymond Roy says power generated will be sold back to the provincial grid.
"Between the two projects, the revenue that will be generated is about $113-thousand annually," says Roy.
Roy says the projects also have an educational component allowing students to learn about the benefits of green energy.
