Go Solar in Alberta & Take Control of Your Energy Costs!

Zeno has unique access to Alberta’s Green Energy industry. Light Up Alberta is a non-government program which encourages a switch to solar and renewable power. In short, retailers pay you back for what you don’t use. In spring and summer, that can earn you 30.00 ¢/kWh for energy put back into the grid. Want to know more? Contact Spot Power or Park Power and start earning now. Be a part of the massive shift Zeno and friends are adding momentum to every day. Happy Earth Month, friends.

Please note: This program is designed for systems that produce more energy on site. Best times to be on solar club rates  vary but can start as early as mid-March until as late as mid-Septmber.  Zeno will not be able to perform any bill changes on behalf of clients.

1. Solar panels collect the Sun’s energy.
2. The energy captured by the solar panels is converted into usable energy for your home or business.
3. The now usable energy available can be consumed by electronics and appliances such as your computer, TV, and smartphone.
4. An additional benefit to having available solar energy at your home is that it can provide clean, carbon free energy for your transportation.
5. Additional energy that is not used by your electronics, appliances, or electric vehicle are exported to the local electrical grid and generates additional income.

To provide you with an accurate solar quote, our sales team will need some key information and photos. This will help us design the best solar system for your home and ensure seamless integration. Here’s what we typically require:

1. Energy Bill: A copy of your most recent energy bill allows us to model your energy consumption and design a solar system tailored to your needs, ensuring accurate pricing.
2. Photos of Electrical Infrastructure and Roof Type: We’ll need pictures of your home’s electrical panel, utility meter, and roof type. This helps us determine how easily a solar system can be integrated with your existing setup.
3. Address Confirmation: With your address, we use Google imaging along with our in-house software to remotely assess your roof’s available space, shading structures, and the optimal tilt for your panels.

This process also gives us a chance to answer any questions you might have about solar, ensuring you have all the information needed to make a well-informed decision.

The team at Zeno will analyze your location, electricity usage, and sustainability goals to determine your suitability for solar. You can ask us questions you may have about solar, incentives, installation, and anything else you can think of.

Once approved, we will handle obtaining Electrical Permits and fill out your Incentive and Micro–Generation Applications for you. We will develop a schedule that works for you and make sure you are satisfied with every aspect of the process. We may need you to sign a couple forms depending on your utility provider.

You may be required to either sign a Fortis Consent Form or EPCOR Consent Form, depending on your utility provider.

Our qualified team of professional electricians will install your system, ensuring quality work throughout. We will connect the new solar panels to your existing electrical system and have your meter replaced by the local wire line owner so that you can connect and sell to the grid.

After installation, our experienced team will review the solar system with you and explain how everything works, including incentives and micro-generation. We will answer any additional questions, ensure you are satisfied with the work, and have a comfortable understanding of your system.

If your solar modules are covered in snow, they will not produce power. However, the effect of snow is built into the expected yearly production that presented in your proposal. This means the days the solar does not produce due to snow coverage are already accounted for when determining your energy offset

It’s always better to be safe than sorry. By integrating solar modules into your home insurance for only $10 – $20 per year, depending on your provider, you can stay protected in the rare chance that hail becomes a problem.

Fortunately, warm weather has little to do with a location’s solar potential. Calgary is one of the sunniest cities in Canada, receiving more than 300 days per year of sunshine. The snow we get in Canada also acts as a reflective surface, which increases our solar potential. Another additional bonus is our cold weather! Solar panels produce more energy when they are cold since their conductivity increases. Calgary has a solar potential of about 1292, which is higher than both Rio de Janeiro and Rome!
