Save more with rebates and incentives

With some of the best solar potential in the country, Alberta is a prime location for a smart solar investment. Our local experts can help you navigate all available incentives to maximize your return.

The Solar Club™ is a solar loyalty program that allows homeowners to earn cash back rewards and access premium export rates, earning more from the power they send back to the grid- maximizing their solar investment. If you’re interested in signing up please visit our partners Shared Value Energy for more.

Alberta’s micro-generation program lets you use the solar energy you generate to offset your own electricity use. Any excess electricity can be sold back to your utility, helping lower your overall energy costs and giving you a more active role in the local energy market.

If you live in a multi-unit building in Edmonton, you could benefit from $0.50/W toward solar costs. Rebates are capped at $4,000 per dwelling—talk to your building management to see if your building qualifies!

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.

Shifting Perspective

Myth

Solar panels aren’t environmentally friendly to produce.

Fact

Like any manufactured product, solar panels have an initial carbon footprint, but they offset it quickly. Within 1–3 years, most panels have generated enough clean energy to “pay back” their production emissions, while continuing to produce emission-free electricity for 30+ years. Over their lifetime, solar panels generate far less environmental impact than fossil fuel energy production

Join forward-thinking businesses across Alberta who are protecting their bottom line and securing their energy future. A custom solar solution from Shift can help you reduce operating costs, gain independence from the grid, and deliver a strong return on investment—potentially saving up to 50% on project costs through federal incentives.

Save more with rebates and incentives

Alberta has strong financial programs that improve the ROI of your commercial solar project. Our local experts can help you navigate these incentives to maximize your return.

Your business can claim a 30% refundable tax credit on the capital cost of a qualifying solar and energy storage installation.

This tax deduction allows your business to depreciate the full cost of eligible clean energy equipment at an accelerated rate.

In Alberta, businesses can send excess solar energy to the grid and participate in a micro-generation buyback program, receiving payments that help offset their electricity costs.

Edmonton offers $0.50/W for multi-unit residential properties with 4+ units, up to $100,000 per property annually. Incentives are based on system size, making solar more affordable for your building and your residents.
