It will be powered by a mix of photovoltaic, biomass, and geothermal energies, with solar heating chipping in too.
The project, dubbed geoLagoon is modeled on the geothermal lagoons in Iceland that are globally popular, and its owner and CEO, Louis Massicotte's vision includes four such lagoons to be built in Canada alone.The water body at the lagoon scheduled to come up at Charlevoix will span over 130,000 sq. feet . Around the lagoon, hundreds of chalets will be built to make a village that will blend in with the natural surroundings.
The chalets will feature photovoltaic cladding that will capture solar energy to help run the heat pumps. Underneath the base of the lagoon will sit a giant thermal reservoir powered by an energy ecosystem consisting of geothermal, biomass, photovoltaics as well as solar heating systems, the patent for which is currently pending.
Inspired by the Blue Lagoon in Iceland, the geolagoon takes the concept to the next level. Once completed, the geoLagoon will dwarf the Icelandic lagoon that covers an area of 93,000 sq. feet . After Charlevoix, geoLagoon has plans for three more such lagoons at Laurentides, Lanaudière and the Eastern Townships. Construction at the First site is expected to begin in March 2023 and is expected to take 18 months.
