We build solar at scale to power Ontario’s clean energy future.
CarbonFree develops, finances, builds and operates utility-scale solar across the Americas — 137 projects and 780 MWdc delivered since 2006. That takes two partners: landowners whose ground can host a project, and large electricity users who buy the power at a fixed price and take the clean energy credits.
Two ways to work with us.
Turn acres you aren’t using into decades of contracted income.
If you own rural, marginal or industrial land near available grid capacity, it may be able to host a utility-scale solar project. Long-term lease payments, no cost to you, and you keep the land.
Know what you’ll pay for power — for the next 20 years.
Electricity costs are volatile, climbing, and impossible to budget more than a year out. Buy power directly from our solar projects at a price fixed by contract for 15 to 20 years. Your rate is set, market spikes don’t reach you, and the clean energy credits are yours. Nothing is installed on your site.
One team, every stage, from first parcel to the grid.
CarbonFree originates, permits, finances, constructs and then operates its projects in-house, for their full multi-decade life. The hardest parts of a project tend to be the handoffs — so we don’t have any. That end-to-end control is what turns a CarbonFree lease into a real project, and a CarbonFree contract into real power.
Origination & development
We work with landowners and energy users to identify sites, assess business models, engineer systems, and manage permitting end to end.
Transaction & acquisition
Two decades of renewable-energy legal and financial expertise structuring new projects and acquiring existing portfolios.
Construction management
Hands-on, day-to-day management of some of the largest solar projects ever built in North America.
Asset management & ownership
Ongoing management of operating projects — performance, O&M oversight, settlement, compliance and warranty.
137 projects. Three countries. All the way to commercial operation.
State-of-the-art rooftop, canopy and ground-mounted systems spanning a wide range of geographies, climates and regulatory jurisdictions — 66 in Ontario alone.

Meaningful partnerships, foundational to how we build.
“Meaningful partnerships are foundational to how we develop projects.” — Daniel Soper, CEO, CarbonFree.
9 financings since 2006
Financed, built and profitably exited — nine times over.
CarbonFree has raised and deployed more than US$400 million of project equity and over US$2.0 billion of project debt, monetizing 66 Ontario projects and 137 globally.
- Near-term value crystallized. Three IESO contracts pre-sold to a project sponsor with a defined development-fee structure.
- Backed by Fengate Asset Management, a long-standing investor in Canadian energy infrastructure.
- Deep pipeline. Solar VI & VII portfolios, BC Hydro procurement, and LATAM storage under development.
