Launched in the Fall of 2022 in Calgary and the City of Okotoks, the CEIP aims to eliminate the initial cost barriers to renewable energy. Administered by the Alberta Municipal Services Corporation, the program offers flexible financing options for eligible energy upgrades. Repayments are conveniently collected through property taxes, making it easier than ever to make the switch to clean energy. Reach out to our team for assistance with applying!

Get Reimbursed for Excess Energy

Albertans are able to defer any excess energy they produce to the main power grid for a monetary rate. Additionally, The Solar Club™ is a plan that allows you to switch between multiple rates depending on the season to maximize the value you receive.

Abundant Sunlight: A Natural Fit for Solar

Calgary enjoys an impressive average of 2,396 hours of sunlight each year, making it a natural hub for solar energy solutions. As more homeowners and businesses switch to renewable energy, the city’s environmental footprint is continually reducing, underscoring the community’s commitment to sustainable living.
