Rural Alberta Solar Installation
Cardston County Solar: Powering Rural Alberta Properties
Cardston County, nestled in the Southern Alberta foothills, offers excellent conditions for solar energy. Property owners can significantly reduce electricity costs and enhance energy independence with a reliable solar system tailored to their needs.
Why Solar Makes Sense in Cardston County
The Southern Alberta foothills provide high solar irradiance, making Cardston County an ideal location for ground mount solar. Farms, acreages, shops, and barns can all benefit from efficient solar installations, supported by FortisAlberta\'s net metering program.
Cardston County experiences approximately 2,370 hours of sunshine annually.
Designed for Rural Electrical Systems
Rural properties in Cardston County often have electrical service characteristics that differ from urban installations. Long distribution lines, single-phase or three-phase service, and older panel infrastructure require careful system design. We assess your service entrance, meter base, and distribution panel as part of the design process.
The Installation Process
Power Bill Review
We review the 12-month usage graph on your most recent power bill to understand your consumption patterns and identify the right system size.
Site Assessment
We visit your property to assess roof or ground conditions, shading, electrical service, and interconnection requirements.
System Design
We produce a system layout, production estimate, and cost summary based on your site and usage data.
Permits and Interconnection
We apply for building and electrical permits and submit your micro-generation interconnection application to FortisAlberta.
Installation
Our crew installs the racking, panels, inverter, and electrical connections. Work is performed by licensed electricians.
Commissioning and Inspection
The system is commissioned, inspected by the authority having jurisdiction, and connected to the grid through FortisAlberta.
