How much do solar panels cost for a 1,500 square foot house?

Before grant funding incentives, the average cost to install solar panels for a 1,500 square foot house will range between $14,000-$20,000. This price will range based on the amount of panels required to offset the home electrical usage. This cost can be offset by the $5,000 greener homes grant + other applicable regional grants. For an accurate estimate for installing solar energy systems to your home in Calgary or Edmonton, request a personalized quote from Evalence today.

How many solar panels will I need for my residential home?

The amount of solar panels needed for your home will depend on your electricity usage, location, and roof orientation. The average solar installation is between 5kW to 10kW of total capacity, which equates to between 10-20 solar panels. 

What other work does Evalence do?

We're more than just a solar installer in Edmonton and Calgary! We call ourselves a renewables company because we're interested in everything renewables and green infrastructure. This includes EV charging, solar systems, battery bank storage, and energy management for residential and commercial.

How does residential solar power work in Alberta?

Solar panels are typically installed on South, East, or West facing roof planes to maximize the sun exposure reaching the solar panels. When solar panels are exposed to sun, a reaction occurs and DC power is produced by the solar panels. DC power is converted to AC power (the type used in your household) by the inverter, and then this power is delivered to your home's electrical system. This power can be stored in a battery, or used by home appliances like AC, hot tubs, fridge, light bulbs, or anything consuming electricity.

Excess electricity is sent back to the grid, and the bidirectional home meter records the total flow of electricity from the house. The amount of electricity exported is credited on the electricity bill to reduce the overall home energy cost. The price you pay for electricity, is typically the price you will receive for your exported electricity in Alberta.

How much money can I save with residential solar panels?

The amount you can save is proportional to the amount you currently spend on your electricity bill. With solar systems, you can design to a maximum of 110% of your home usage. If your electricity bill is $200/month, that's how much you could save with solar. It's important to consider that administration and transmision fees will still be present on your bill, so it can be difficult to offset 100%. Battery storage can assist with reducing these fees.

What factors determine how much electricity residential solar panels produce?

The major factors impacting residential solar production is the design of the roof and shading surrounding the property. South facing roof slopes without obstructions from neighbouring homes or trees will result in the most efficient electricity production.

Are there any government incentives or rebates for installing residential solar in Alberta?

Yes. The most commonly used incentive is the Greener Homes Grant & Loan Program. This program offers a $5,000 grant incentive for installing solar panels, and will bundle up to $40,000 of project costs into a 0% loan.

The Clean Energy Improvement Program can also be utilized to finance residential solar projects. The program is distributed by Alberta municipalities for loans up to $50,000 of projects costs with repayment terms up to 20 years. Interest rates vary between municipalities, but range between (2%-4%).

What is the average lifespan of residential solar panels?

Evalence utilizes the highest quality Tier 1 solar panels available in Canada. These panels come with production performance guarantees of up to 30 years.

What maintenance is required for residential solar panels?

Solar panels are generally maintenance free for home owners. Our systems come with monitoring software which can be utilized by our team, and the home owner to monitor solar production. If the monitoring software determines a panel is underperforming, than a service call would be completed to assess the panel condition.

Can I still use electricity from the grid with residential solar panels?

Yes. Most residential solar systems installed in Alberta are grid-tied. This means the home, and the solar system are connected with the electrical grid. We reccommend this set up because it gives home owners the most flexible and robust solution for their needs.

How long does it take to complete the installation of an EV charger?

The installation duration for an EV charger can take several hours to a day, depending on factors such as the type of charger, the wiring complexity, and any modifications needed for your electrical system. The more complex the installation, the more time required to complete it!
