Why Solar Makes Sense in Strathcona County
Strathcona County, part of the acreage belt east of Edmonton, offers excellent solar opportunities for its high density of rural residential and agricultural properties. With FortisAlberta as the utility provider, residents can benefit from net metering, allowing them to sell excess power back to the grid. This makes solar an attractive investment for farms, shops, and barns looking to optimize energy use.
The Edmonton Region, including Strathcona County, receives approximately 2,345 hours of sunshine annually.
Designed for Rural Electrical Systems
Rural properties in Strathcona 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

We review the 12-month usage graph on your most recent power bill to understand your consumption patterns and identify the right system size.

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.
