The Nanticoke Solar Facility is a 44 MW solar power station in Nanticoke, Ontario, Canada.[1] It is located on the site of the defunct Nanticoke Generating Station, which operated from 1972 to 2013 and was the largest coal-fired power plant in North America.

The facility is owned and operated by Nanticoke Solar LP, a joint venture of Ontario Power Generation (80%), the Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation (15%), and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation (5%).[2][3]
