solar

Rooftop & ground solar

We design and install solar arrays tailored to your property layout, solar exposure, and energy goals. Whether we are optimizing around existing utility bills or building a system for a new property from the ground up, we design for how the Island sun actually moves. You’ll have full visibility into expected production and system performance before work begins.

  • Complimentary site assessment
  • Custom-designed for your site & energy goals
  • Grid-tied, hybrid, or off-grid options

Battery

Battery storage & backup

Keep the lights on when the power goes out, and store the sun you make during the day to use at night. Great for outage-prone and remote homes.

  • Whole-home or partial backup
  • Pairs with solar
  • Quiet, no fumes

Most residential solar systems on the Island range between $15,000 and $30,000 before rebates, depending heavily on your roof layout and household energy goals. Use our interactive calculator tool above to get a quick, realistic look at potential costs and numbers for your home.
Yes! Modern solar panels do not require scorching, direct desert sunlight to generate power; they produce electricity using ambient daylight. While summer is naturally our peak generation window, the Island’s cool, breezy climate actually helps panels operate at peak electrical efficiency.
Our primary service areas cover the Greater Victoria municipalities, including Victoria, Saanich, Central Saanich, North Saanich, Sidney, Oak Bay, Esquimalt, View Royal, Colwood, Langford, Highlands, Metchosin, and Sooke. As part of our commitment to bringing clean energy to the region, our secondary service areas include the Gulf Islands and communities further Up-Island.
Absolutely. Island homeowners can take advantage of substantial BC Hydro rebates—up to $10,000 when combining solar panels with eligible battery storage systems. For financing, we can point you toward flexible local options like low-interest clean energy renovation loans through regional credit unions (such as VanCity). We’ll help you navigate the paperwork to maximize your savings.
Yes! We are fully equipped to handle the unique shipping and travel logistics of installing solar and battery backup systems across the Gulf Islands. We can also design custom, self-sustaining off-grid solar and battery storage banks tailored specifically to remote or un-networked coastal properties.
