The McGregor Park Arena in Scarborough is set to attract not only hockey enthusiasts but also sunrays with its newly installed solar panels.
Scarborough Centre Councillor Michael Thompson, along with Jim Baxter, director of energy & strategic initiative at the city of Toronto, pulled the lever that officially launched the project on Nov. 12.
The arena will now host an array of solar panels that could potentially earn the city a hefty paycheque—once they pay for themselves.
