200 MW Geothermal Power (Tecto Energy)
Tecto Energy is an energy resource development company that was established to explore and develop renewable energy resources and technologies in Canada and abroad. The company has acquired a major geothermal concession in Canada with the potential to produce several hundreds of megawatts of renewable power in British Columbia. Geothermal power technology is mature, clean […]
14 MW Small Hydropower (Tecto Energy)
Tecto Energy is planning on developing a 14 MW small hydropower project on Lyon Creek in British Columbia (in the Kootenay region). For this project, we conducted feasibility assessments to evaluate power generation potential, economics, and a regulatory and environmental study along with a comprehensive hydrological assessment to determine the life-cycle energy potential of the […]
Kwadacha First Nation Greenhouse Facility
For many people living in northern latitudes, the cost of shipping food to remote communities is becoming increasingly expensive. The food cost increases and the food quality decreases as vegetables, grains, dairy and fruits are transported to reach distant communities. The high price of healthy food and vegetables has harmfully affected many remote communities across […]

Origin Organic Farms
The Origin Organic Farms in Delta, British Columbia is an organic vegetable-growing operation that primarily produces organic tomatoes, along with some organic peppers and cucumbers. It is a 13-acre (5.2ha) under-the-glass greenhouse growing facility that is one of three organic greenhouse growers in Canada and the only company in BC carrying out organic greenhouse operations. […]
Glenwood Valley Farms
The Glenwood Valley Farms in Langley, B.C., consists of a 15-acre (5.9ha) under-the-glass vegetable-growing operation that produces peppers and cucumbers. Canadian greenhouses are commonly very energy intensive. Most of the consumed energy is related to heating at relatively low temperature. The heat is most commonly supplied by burning natural gas to heat water, which acts […]
Delta View Farms
The Delta View Farms Operation (a tomato growing greenhouse) located in Delta, B.C., is one of the major producers of greenhouse crops in Canada. Greenhouses commonly supply their energy and CO2 demands from separate sources; heat is produced through boilers, CO2 is either purchased or generated by locally burning natural gas, and the power is purchased through […]
Lynn Valley Care Centre
Lynn Valley Care Centre is one of Metro-Vancouver’s state-of-the-art geriatric facilities dedicated to providing a wide range of care programs and services to 200 residents. The Centre uses a 150 kW hybrid geothermal and solar system, which is designed and developed by Carnotech Energy Engineers. For this project, we conducted a feasibility study, detailed engineering […]
Fairfield Propagators
Fairfield Propagators is a large (11 acre) floricultural (lily and chrysanthemum) facility in Chilliwack, British Columbia. Carnotech Energy has conducted a comprehensive energy assessment and alternative energy resource study for the greenhouse facility with the objective of reducing its energy costs and enhancing long-term energy sustainability. As part of the energy assessment project, we conducted […]
The Chapman Creek Hatchery
The Chapman Creek Hatchery is a fish hatchery operation in Sechelt, Sunshine Coast, B.C., dedicated to sustaining and building salmon and trout stocks in local waterways, and facilitating public education regarding salmonid habitat and life cycles. Carnotech Energy conducted a feasibility study along with detailed engineering design of a 5KW micro hydropower and 20kW geothermal […]
