Canada-based SolarBank Corporation announced strategic adjustments to its North American operations in response to evolving US and Canadian energy policies. In the US, the recently enacted Big Beautiful Bill extended full investment tax credits (ITCs) to projects starting construction by July 4, 2026, if completed within four years. To capitalize on this, SolarBank prioritized a 97 MW portfolio across select US states with advanced site control, permitting, and interconnection, backed by a $100 million financing partnership with CIM Group. Simultaneously, the company is expanding in Canada through battery storage deployments in Ontario under the IESO’s Long-Term RFP and by scaling its market presence in Nova Scotia’s Community Solar program. Citing Prime Minister Mark Carney’s “Build, baby, build” initiative, SolarBank views Canada's fast-tracked clean energy infrastructure as a key opportunity. The company continues to monitor policy shifts while navigating associated risks tied to permitting, financing, and regulatory conditions.
