### Warning! Do not pay your next energy bill until you have read this

There is a simple inconvenient truth your energy company doesn’t want you to know. There are rebates that qualify homeowners who live in specific postal codes to be eligible for up to $10,000 of funding to install solar panels and/or a home battery. Many homeowners qualify for the full rebate, while others receive partial funding or low-cost options.

Why doesn’t your energy company want you to know about this? Because it can drastically lower your energy bill and may even cost $0 up front to install.

The solar rebates are already helping hundreds of thousands of homes fund their solar system, saving on solar rebates and funding while making the switch to renewable energy more accessible.

When it comes to solar power, the questions households need answered are as follows:

1. Do I qualify for a solar rebate?
2. Can I eliminate my power bill?
3. Is my home suitable for solar?
4. What will it cost me?

### Before solar | ### After solar

So, how does this program work?

Until recently, solar panels cost tens of thousands of dollars to purchase and install, and the cost outweighed the benefit. Now with generous grants combined with improved low cost solar technology, installing solar has become attainable to almost every Canadian homeowner.

What if I don’t put solar on?

What if I don’t put solar on? If you don’t put solar on your house, you are effectively paying for your neighbours' solar system through your higher power bills. As more and more people install solar, the houses left without solar end up paying more for their electricity, so that the energy companies can continue to make their usual profit amount.
