What our clients have to say
Recent Projects
Ottawa Solar + Battery Project
This client in the Ottawa area was facing consistently high electricity bills and had no backup solution during outages. We installed a custom solar system paired with 28.8 kWh of battery storage—giving them the power to dramatically reduce their hydro bills and keep their essential loads running even when the grid goes down. It’s energy independence they can count on, day and night.
Solar + Heat Pump Project – Full Energy Shift
This client wanted to eliminate her gas bill and reduce reliance on the grid. We installed a custom solar system alongside a high-efficiency heat pump—allowing her to power her home, heat it in the winter, and cool it in the summer, all with energy from the sun. She now enjoys year-round comfort with zero gas costs and a dramatically lower electric bill.
All-Electric Solar + Battery Upgrade – Total Home Electrification
This Orleans, ON client made the switch to full electrification with a high-performance solar system featuring panel-level optimization and a high-voltage DC battery. Paired with a heat pump and electric furnace, they now heat and cool their home with solar power—while also charging their electric vehicle directly from the sun. The result: dramatically lower utility bills, greater energy independence, and a home that runs clean, quiet, and resilient year-round.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our solar systems come with robust warranties to give you peace of mind. The panels include a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty covering materials and workmanship, along with a 30-year linear power warranty that guarantees no more than 0.4% performance degradation per year. Inverters come with warranties ranging from 10 to 25 years depending on the model. We also back our installation with a 5-year labour and workmanship warranty to ensure long-term reliability.
There’s no regular maintenance required for your solar system. The system is designed to run reliably on its own. The only time service may be needed is if a component fails—most commonly, the inverter, which may need replacement after 10-15 years.
Net metering lets you send excess electricity your solar panels produce back to the grid. In return, you earn energy credits that offset the power you draw from the grid when your system isn’t producing—like at night or on cloudy days. It’s how your solar system keeps saving you money 24/7.
Load displacement means your solar panels power your home’s appliances and devices directly while the sun is shining—reducing your reliance on the grid in real time. However, with this setup, there’s no exporting of excess energy, so you won’t build credits for surplus solar. This system is ideal if you’re planning to install batteries, allowing you to store unused solar power and use it at night when electricity rates are highest.
A home battery is essential if you want to keep your lights on during a power outage—it provides seamless backup for your most important loads. Beyond backup, it also helps you save more every day through peak shaving: by using stored battery power during high-rate periods (typically between 5–7 PM), you reduce your reliance on expensive grid electricity and maximize your solar savings.
The biggest savings go to the highest power users—typically those spending $200 or more per month on electricity. While most utility bills include a fixed connection fee ($40–$60/month) that solar can’t eliminate, the rest of your bill can be drastically reduced. Over the 25–30 year lifespan of your system, it’s common to save $50,000 or more in avoided electricity costs.
From the time you sign your contract to full system commissioning, the process typically takes 6–10 weeks. The actual installation on your home usually takes 3–4 days, while the rest of the timeline involves permitting, paperwork, and approval wait times from utilities and government programs.
Currently, homeowners can take advantage of two major incentives. The Canada Greener Homes Loan offers up to $40,000 at 0% interest over 10 years, available for both net metering and load displacement systems. In Ontario, there's also a rebate of up to $5,000 for a solar system and an additional $5,000 for a battery system—however, this provincial rebate is only available for load displacement systems, not net metering. These programs can significantly reduce upfront costs and make solar more affordable than ever.
Yes—commercial clients can access substantial incentives. The 30% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows businesses to claim back 30% of their solar system’s capital cost against their federal tax liability in the following year. In Ontario, Save on Energy offers an additional $860/kW AC rebate for load displacement systems, which typically covers 25–35% of the project cost. These incentives can often be stacked, significantly lowering the upfront investment and improving ROI.
