For a coastal province where reliable power is key, strong government incentives make going solar a smart choice. Our local experts in Nova Scotia can guide you through every available program.
Nova Scotia’s net metering program allows you to earn credits for any excess solar energy you send to the grid, reducing your monthly power bills.
The Community Solar Program helps community groups and organizations set up solar gardens on their properties and sell subscriptions for the clean electricity they produce.
In addition to grants, we offer flexible financing plans with no money down. These plans often have monthly payments that are less than your current hydro bill.
