Bell2Bell’s latest podcast features Dr. Richard Lu, President and CEO of SolarBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN), a premier developer and owner of renewable and clean energy projects specializing in distributed and community solar initiatives throughout Canada and the United States.
During the interview, Lu discussed SolarBank’s business model and value proposition for investors.
“When you look at civilization over the years, originally, we depended on the sun to give us light for agriculture. Then, we relied on burning oil to break the darkness of the night. During industrialization, electricity allowed us to keep the lights on and now keeps us all connected. The driving force behind today’s digital economy is electricity. SolarBank is a clean and renewable power supplier focused on delivering electricity from non-emitting sources. That has been the mission and vision of the company for over 12 years.”
Lu also provided insight into the company’s current pipeline and near-term goals.
“We recently signed a $50 million USD contract with Qcells and are also building a 60 MWh battery storage project that we will own. As a vertically integrated company, we handle development, construction and ownership. Our pipeline includes solar, battery storage and EV charging projects totaling over 1 gigawatt of capacity across Canada and the U.S.”
“This year, we plan to continue delivering to the Honeywell portfolio with additional projects while fulfilling the Qcells contract. We are also expanding our portfolio with major infrastructure projects. Last year, through a $45 million valued all-stock deal, we acquired solar assets developed by our team over the past decade, which are now contributing to our recurring revenue. We currently own about $180 million in assets. In terms of revenue, we generated approximately $60 million in fiscal 2024, and, as of January, we have secured major contracts supporting our continued growth.”
Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Dr. Richard Lu, President and CEO of SolarBank Corporation, as they discuss SolarBank’s long-term goals and strategy for capitalizing on forecast growth, particularly in the data center industry.

Bell2Bell’s latest podcast features Tamir Poleg, the Co-Founder, Chairman & CEO of The Real Brokerage Inc. (NASDAQ: REAX), which is revolutionizing the residential real estate industry by pairing best-in-class technology with the trusted guidance of an agent. We provide a digital brokerage platform for agents, while working to build a better end-to-end home buying experience for consumers.
During the interview, Tamir Poleg discussed what makes The Real Brokerage's business model so compelling.
"We are the most efficient real estate brokerage in the market because of the fact that we implement software instead of putting more and more humans to work, meaning that as we grow, as we scale, as we add more and more agents, we do not grow our operating expense at the same pace. And we have a very compelling ratio of one employee for every 140 agents, whereas the average in the industry is one employee for every 20 agents at any other brokerage. We have very few employees that process actions due to a lot of automation and software that we built that can automate all of the processes that typically are done by a human.So this is a huge competitive advantage because nobody can actually compete with us on efficiency and This is why we can scale just in the first two weeks of January of 2025, we added 1000 agents in two weeks."

Bell2Bell’s latest podcast features Nicole Brewster, President and CEO of Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR) (OTCQB: RFHRF), an active mineral exploration company engaged in the exploration and development of its wholly owned multi-commodity mineral properties in Canada.
During the interview, Brewster discussed Renforth’s business model and value proposition for investors.
“Renforth is a multi-commodity junior exploration company. We're comprised of a number of retail shareholders who repeatedly support the company as they align with our vision of developing our multi-metals package, which includes a 275-square-kilometer, extremely well-located property in Quebec. This property contains a significant amount of nickel mineralization along with an appreciable amount of zinc. Very close by, we also have our Parbec gold deposit, which anchors the company's value because we know how many ounces of gold are in the ground.”
“In fact, we're in the midst of redoing the Parbec resource based on a significant amount of information that's come to light subsequent to the historic 2019 resource. The most basic change is that, when the historic resource was calculated, the price of gold was $1,450 an ounce. It's now pushing $2,700 an ounce, so the value of our gold deposit has, even without the addition of our new information, appreciably increased.”
“That's us in a nutshell – two very compelling assets that give us both financial anchor and exposure into the energy transition world. They both benefit from roads, hydroelectric power, supportive communities, and established mining camps. All of this is in a little junior company that, in Canadian terms, trades for a penny and a half... We're in the heart of gold country in Quebec, and arguably in Canada. We're on one of the most prolific, financially important gold structures that runs for a couple of hundred kilometers, and our foothold here is very compelling.”
