Our experience with Level Up Solar was great from start to finish! They recently installed solar panels at our home in Calgary, and the process was exactly what  they said. The team was knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to walk us through every step, making the transition to solar energy manageable.

Aj Mamrak, Calgary, AB

I recently had solar panels installed by Level Up Solar, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Living in Airdrie and working for the local power distributor, I wanted to ensure I was working with a reputable company. Level Up Solar exceeded all my expectations.

Sean Dinney, Airdrie, AB

I recently had a Solar Panel System installed by Level Up Solar, and I could not be more impressed with their professionalism and dedication. I reached out to five different Solar Panel installation companies, and after careful consideration, Level Up Solar stood out as the most knowledgeable, professional, and extremely cooperative.

Muhammad Ejaz Aslam, Calgary, AB

Awesome company to take me through this Solar process and they were complete professionals. Always keep me updated, answered my many questions and on the day of construction were so clean and efficient. Can’t recommend them enough. Always felt they were honest, right from the estimating phase right up to the project end.

When it came to installation of the Solar Panels (14.4 kW DC, 32 450 watt Longi, TopCon panels, 16 APSystems DS3-L micro-inverters) Brett and team showed up, and I mean that they were a dream to work with. He and the team figured out optimal installation on the roof.

Alberta's Solar Rebate Programs

Government
Loans and Incentives

Canada Greener Homes Loan has introduced a new interest-free personal loan of up to $40,000 named the Canada Greener Homes Loan. This loan has been designed to support solar installation, and retrofitting initiatives and is available to individuals who have applied for the Greener Homes Grant.

The Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) is a Canadian initiative that enables municipalities to help homeowners, businesses, and organizations finance clean energy projects, such as solar energy installations and energy efficiency upgrades. Through CEIP, participants can access low-interest, long-term loans that are repaid through their property tax bills. 

The Clean Energy Investment Tax Credit (CEITC) provides a significant financial boost for businesses investing in clean energy in Canada. For eligible projects, such as solar panel installations, the federal government offers a refundable tax credit of up to 30% on investment costs. This incentive makes clean energy adoption much more affordable, allowing businesses to offset a substantial portion of the initial installation costs.

Government Incentives

Several government incentives exist to facilitate a smooth and cost-effective transition to solar energy making the transition to solar more affordable.

Types of Solar Panels

There are three main types of solar panels commonly used today: monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film.

  1. Monocrystalline panels are known for their high efficiency and sleek black appearance, making them ideal for residential rooftops.
  2. Polycrystalline panels are slightly less efficient but more cost-effective, with a blue, speckled look.
  3. Thin-film panels are lightweight and flexible, often used in specialty applications.

 

At Level Up Solar, we use high-performance LONGi monocrystalline panels for their superior efficiency, durability, and long-term reliability, ensuring our customers get the most out of their solar investment.
