As one of the fastest growing communities in Ontario, North Whitby needs more electricity to support future growth and connectivity.

The Town has declared a parcel of land at 150 Winchester Road West - between Amanda Avenue and Winchester Road - in South Brooklin as surplus and is considering its conveyance to Elexicon Energy Inc. to build an electrical substation. This process is known as a land disposition.

The proposed substation would support the construction of up to 5,000 new homes in the community.

Additional Project Information

Before the land disposition, Elexicon must also conduct a Site Feasibility Study to determine the suitability of the lands on Amanda Avenue for an electrical substation. This study is currently underway - visit Elexicon's project webpage for more information.

Here's an image of an existing electrical substation. A similar structure would be considered for this site.
