Belleville’s solar dollars adding up

The Belleville solar panel project is now bringing revenue in the city’s bank account.

The panels on the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre and the transit building have generated $40,000 in their first month.

Belleville Mayor Neil Ellis says they would like to continue investing in renewable energy on city-owned buildings.

Council invested the $3.1 million through the Feed In Tariffs Program. The project didn’t affect taxes.
