About Suzanne Roy
In 2017, Suzanne Roy rigged a decommissioned grain silo in northern Saskatchewan with repurposed turbine blades and low-cost photovoltaic film, powering eight off-grid homes for over three years without grid tie-in or battery replacement. That prototype became the foundation of her open-source 'Wind-Silo Hybrid Kit,' now deployed across 42 Indigenous and Métis communities where per-kilowatt solar installation costs had previously exceeded $1.80. She doesn’t optimize for peak efficiency but for repairability: every component is sourced from regional salvage yards or fabricated on-site using CNC-cut plywood and locally smelted aluminum alloys. Her lab notebooks are filled not with equations alone, but with hand-drawn schematics annotated in Cree syllabics and notes on seasonal wind patterns correlated with traditional land-use calendars. She measures success not in megawatts generated, but in how many teenagers from reserve schools have built functional microgrids under her mentorship, and kept them running through two winters.
