How Does Solar Power in Ontario Work for Your Home?
- Solar panels absorb sunlight, which produces a DC electric current.
- A solar inverter converts that DC current into usable, AC electric current for use in the home and export to the electrical grid.
Shop our collection of Inverters - Electricity is distributed throughout the home for any electronics
that require power. - Excess power not utilized by the home is sent to the grid for
credit – physically spinning your hydro meter backwards!
How much solar power do I need in Ontario?
To determine the proper size of your solar power system, we will need to calculate how much electricity you consume during a year. Your hydro bill typically contains data that shows your historical electricity consumption in kilowatt hours (kWh).
The optimal direction for solar panels to face in Ontario is south, but there is still amazing sunlight absorption when they face east and west, as well.
Of course, to be certain of your solar power systems potential, our design engineers will create a custom design and projections based on your unique site characteristics. Contact us today for a customized proposal.
A solar power system for your home is a powerful investment, and we are here to protect that investment and ensure your system is built right. Since the inception of the net-metering program in Ontario, we have worked diligently to provide high-quality solar energy systems, paired with unrivalled customer service.
