Good Energy Partners

What Good Energy Partners does

Good Energy Partners is a Toronto-based agrivoltaic solar project developer that designs, develops, and deploys dual-use solar and agricultural systems for farm owners, greenhouse operators, and livestock graziers across Canada. The company's core thesis is that co-locating photovoltaic generation with ongoing food production on the same land parcel allows agricultural landholders to earn consistent energy revenues year-round without sacrificing crop or livestock output — directly addressing the land-use conflict between energy generation and food production.

The firm's product platform comprises three integrated solutions: Agri PV, which couples crop production with solar generation; Solar Grazing, which integrates sheep grazing operations with elevated solar installations to optimize vegetation management; and Integrated Solutions (GiPV), a greenhouse and controlled environment agriculture offering built on traditional module platforms to meet year-round electricity demands. Revenue is generated through custom, quote-based project development engagements secured via a consultative sales motion, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. The company operates on a "Book a Consultation" model and serves an Ontario-based enterprise customer base spanning agricultural landholders, greenhouse CEA operators, and sheep farmers, with Ontario Sheep Farmers disclosed as a named partner.

The founding team — Patrick Gossage (Co-founder, Founding Chair of Agrivoltaics Canada), Justin Woodward (Development Lead; prior founder of a 2007-era Ontario rooftop solar company), and Mike Carter (Co-founder; 20+ years leading Canadian solar and hydroelectric projects valued at over $1 billion) — provides deep renewable-energy execution credibility. Good Energy Partners is co-founder-led, privately held with no disclosed institutional funding, and operates from 140 B Dupont Street, Toronto, Ontario, with active thought-leadership positioning through its founding role in Agrivoltaics Canada.

Revenue model

1. Agrivoltaic Solar Project Development: Good Energy Partners develops and implements agrivoltaic solar solutions for agricultural landholders. The company generates revenue by designing, developing, and deploying integrated solar and agricultural systems. Revenue is derived from solar development projects that enable dual-use of agricultural land for both energy generation and food production, generating consistent energy revenues year-round for farm partners.

Core offering

Good Energy Partners develops agrivoltaic solar projects that allow agricultural landholders to generate solar electricity while continuing to farm the same land. The company delivers three integrated service lines — Agri PV (solar arrays co-located with crop production), Solar Grazing (sheep used for vegetation management under panels), and Integrated Solutions (solar integrated into greenhouses and controlled-environment agriculture). Each offering combines site assessment, system design, and integration consulting tailored to the farmer's existing operation.

Product overview

Good Energy Partners offers a unified agrivoltaics platform providing three integrated solar solutions for agricultural land: Agri PV for crop integration with solar, Solar Grazing for optimized vegetation management using livestock, and Integrated Solutions for greenhouse and controlled environment agriculture. These products enable dual-use solar and agricultural development, generating consistent energy revenues while maintaining food production on the same land.

Differentiator

Problem solved

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Agri PV Agrivoltaic solution that co-lates photovoltaic solar arrays with continued crop production on the same parcel of farmland. Designed for active farmland owners and operators who want to add solar energy revenue without taking land out of food production.
• Solar Grazing Vegetation management service using sheep grazing under and around solar arrays. Targets sheep farmers and graziers seeking contracted grazing work and solar developers seeking low-cost vegetation control, providing a dual-benefit solution.
• Integrated Solutions (GiPV) Greenhouse Integrated Photovoltaics (GiPV) service that integrates solar generation into greenhouse and controlled-environment agriculture structures. Designed for greenhouse and CEA operators seeking on-site energy without sacrificing covered growing area.

Direct peers

• BlueWave Solar: US-based solar developer with a dedicated agrivoltaic and dual-use land practice. Directly comparable to Good Energy Partners as a smaller, specialized developer integrating solar generation with agricultural land use, though operating in Massachusetts rather than Canada.
• Sun'Agri: France-based agrivoltaic pioneer developing dynamic solar systems co-located with crops. Most directly comparable to Good Energy Partners in pure-play agrivoltaic specialization and three-product thinking (crop, greenhouse, and pilot projects), though operating at materially larger scale.

Emerging players

• Ombrea: French agrivoltaic startup combining agricultural and energy engineering services for farms. Comparable as an early-stage specialist with similar consulting-plus-development business model, though based in France rather than Canada.

Broad incumbents

• EDF Renewables: Global renewable energy developer with explicit agrivoltaic project activity in Europe. Comparable as a broad incumbent that has entered the agrivoltaic category Good Energy Partners specializes in, with materially greater capital and project execution capacity.
• Lightsource BP: Global utility-scale solar developer with active agrivoltaic pilot programs. Comparable as a broad incumbent operating in dual-use solar at scale, representing the type of player Good Energy Partners may eventually compete against or partner with for project pipelines.
• Voltalia: France-based renewable energy developer with agrivoltaic offerings. Comparable as an incumbent that has built both solar generation capacity and agricultural co-location expertise, demonstrating the strategic category overlap Good Energy Partners is targeting.
• TotalEnergies (Renewables): Global integrated energy major with significant renewable and agrivoltaic project activity. Comparable as a broad incumbent that has invested in dual-use solar, representing both a potential competitive threat and a future offtake or co-development partner.
• ENGIE Green: European renewable developer with active agrivoltaic pilot projects. Comparable as an incumbent operating solar generation assets alongside agricultural land use, signaling the strategic trajectory Good Energy Partners is pursuing at a much earlier stage.

Regional players

• Brookfield Renewable Partners: Toronto-headquartered renewable energy developer and operator with assets across hydro, wind, and solar. Comparable as a Canadian-headquartered broad renewable platform that could either acquire or compete with Good Energy Partners in the Ontario agrivoltaic market.
• Innergex Renewable Energy: Canadian renewable energy independent power producer with operating facilities across Canada including Ontario. Comparable as a regional renewable developer with established Ontario project presence that could enter agrivoltaic directly or partner with the firm.
