What is a distributed energy system?
Benefits of such a system for cities in Canada (drawn from as many available and applicable locations as possible e.g. a city in Ontario vs. a First Nation community in Nunavut)
 
== Chapter 2 ==
Background in solar energy measurement
Solar energy potential for Southeastern Ontario
 
== Chapter 3 ==
Background on integrating PV in urban area
