Which cell aesthetic do you prefer? The front are black, the back are blue. We prefer the backside!

Ontario's home renovation savings program announced about a week ago. Actual details hit the pan today but with a disappointment . The $5000 towards solar is not for net metering, only for load displacement.

Basically this means you can't export excess energy and expect credits for it.

As designers this means we either size systems smaller so your output generally never exceeds your use during the day OR you have to have to buy energy storage as part of your system.

We'll put a blog post up about it later, still finding out some information. Stay tuned!

PS: the system picture below was generating 40 Watts at the time of the picture, which I think is pretty amazing!

Getting them in before the snow comes. 20kW in Fergus.

Hope everyone had a good eclipse day. Let's continue to look to the Sun for answers 🌞

What would you call a power failure?

A current event.

We've been waiting for this, haven't seen price reductions here yet but sounds like they're coming? (Not promoting TESLA by the way!)

Battery prices collapsing, grid-tied energy storage expanding From July 2023 through summer 2024, battery cell pricing is expected to plummet by more than 60% due to a surge in electric vehicle (EV) adoption and grid expansion in China and the United States.

Solar technology sure has come a long way since 1908. We've come a long way since then.

Hats off to those pioneers.

Logical and exciting development, their stationary batteries are still super expensive and do nothing for us here in Ontario most of the time. Why not use the multi purpose, much bigger, EV battery for those what if scenarios?

Enphase (ENPH) introduces bi-directional EV charging for an all-in-one solar home energy system Enphase Energy (ENPH), the world’s leading supplier of microinverter-based solar and battery systems, announced Thursday its latest innovation – a...

Throwback Thursday. This one from 10/11 years ago was ambitious (owner wanted to MAX it out!!) but turned out well. I like the angled mods.

Graphic we chose for an upcoming ad. What a cute team.

Last project of the year completed in London on the Solstice a couple of days ago. Reinstallation of 33 modules on new metal roof.

2023 looks like it will be our busiest year yet. Happy Holidays to all, enjoy your rest -- we certainly will! 🌟🌞🌟

When your latest solar pool heating lead would like to speak to a local customer about their experience and you think about it for a minute and then give him someone within easy walkable distance that he can go chat to.
