If you like to do things yourself we can offer you advice or be the General Contractor that coordinates all the different trades to make sure everything happens in a timely mannner. With our network of different trades we can assure to line you up with people that care and take pride in their work.

Solar Solutions and Alternative Energy
With over 25 years experience living off-grid with solar power you can be confident that we know all the ins and outs! Our expertise comes from experience and we sell only quality equipment. Our distributor has headquarters across Canada which allows us to offer the best prices and fast shipping. We offer full technical support so can help you through the learning curves and when problems arise you won't be alone.

Site Analysis
There are many questions that people have when considering investing in a Solar System. There are also many different answers to those questions depending on your site's potential. Sun exposure is of course the most important to maximize your input but if you don't have a South facing slope on your roof there are other alternatives such as tracking poles and ground mounts.
Other than simple rooftop Grid-tie systems most jobs will require an on site analysis for us to provide our customers with a fair estimate.

ABOUT
We are a family run business that takes pride from our satisfied customers. Living off grid for over 40 years has taught us to be self reliant and discover how to live efficiently with our energy needs. Growing up on the farm we had cold running water and kerosene lamps. Slowly I learned about battery storage so we could have lights and watch a movie at night. Our lives changed dramatically once we got our first solar panels about 25 years ago! They were very expensive back then but were still worth it as we didn't have to run the generator all the time and were able to have a small refrigerator. As new technologies emerged we were able to have all the modern amenities for comfortable living. From there my interests in keeping up with new technology kept expanding and I'm still excited about how far we can go as the industry keeps finding better solutions.
Nowadays solar panels have come down in price dramatically and are the best solution for keeping up with energy needs and independence. If you are connected to the Grid, a Grid-tie system is an affordable way to take responsibility for your energy consumption and invest in yourself. If you create more power than you use you will build credits as the excess energy flows into the Grid. If you live or are looking at property where the Grid doesn't cover then you need an Off-Grid system that requires Battery Storage and an Inverter to convert the solar energy into usable household current.
In the past decade battery technology has finally seen improvements in performance, lifespan, charging and discharging rates which gives the consumer more value per dollar. The demand for these improvements for cell phones, computers and Electric Vehicles has benefited the solar energy market making energy storage more cost-effective. Inverters have also seen major improvements and not only convert the solar energy into usable energy they are turning into smart energy managers. They can manage the energy storage of the battery bank, control how the energy is consumed in the home, charge electric vehicles and support grid stabilization. They are the "brain" for smart energy management of the home and point of contact to the grid.
These are exciting times for clean sustainable power. The prices have finally become reasonable as a sound investment in your future. Solar power allows you to take personal responsibility for your energy needs and monitor your consumption and input.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Q: With a grid-tie system will I have power when there is a power outage?
A: No the system safely disconnects when there is a power failure. We offer the option of a secure source battery backup that would run certain loads in the event of a power outage
​
Q: What happpens in the winter?
A: Solar energy varies through the year with lower production in the winter as the days are shorter. When the sun does come out the snow will melt off if the slope allows and they still charge on cloudy days but with a lower output.
​
Q: Why are solar panels a good investment?
A: Solar panels feature a 25 year output warranty and will likely last for 30 years or more. They will produce free and reliable electricity for decades while enhancing the value of your home or business
​
Q: What if I don't have enough room on my roof or my roof doesn't face South for maximum exposure?
A: There are many options available for ground mounts or to maximize exposure a tracking pole increases production by up to 40%
​
Q: How much energy can I gather with a solar electric system?
A:Solar array sizes vary by Array size KWh/year % of typical electrical load
1 kilowatt 1250 12%-25%
2 kilowatt 2500 24%-50%
5 kilowatt 6250 55%-125%
10 kilowatt 12500 100%-250%
Most Canadian houses use between 5000 kWh (very efficient) and 13000 kWh (not very efficient) per year. You can get a good idea of your usage by going over your power bills from the last year and get an average
