What do solar panels in Calgary cost?

At Panel Upgrade Experts, we believe in clear, upfront pricing, no surprises, no hidden fees. Our systems are designed to save you money on your energy bills while fitting your household budget.

The cost of a complete solar installation in Calgary depends on several factors including system size, roof type, shading, and electrical panel requirements. On average, most residential systems range between $10,000 and $25,000 before rebates.

With current incentives such as the Canada Greener Homes Loan and Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) financing, many homeowners are able to reduce upfront costs and see payback in as little as 7–12 years, depending on energy usage and system size.

What Our Solar Customers Have To Say

Commercial Solar Installations

commercial solar installation

Commercial solar is about more than panels on a roof. It is about turning sunlight into lower costs and stronger margins for your business.

When the system is in place, you start seeing the benefits right away. Smaller power bills. More control when the grid gets shaky. And a big cut in carbon emissions that shows your customers you are serious about sustainability.

What is our solar panel installation process?

Design, Proposal, Application

We design a system around your home’s power needs and space, then lay out a clear proposal with costs and savings. We also handle the permits and the micro-generation application so your system is fully approved and ready to earn credits.

Installation

Once the design is approved, our team gets to work. Our Calgary solar installers set the panels where they will get the best sun, whether that is on your roof or the ground. Every install is handled by licensed electricians with years of experience, so the wiring is safe, efficient, and built to last.​

Powering and commisioning

After the solar panels are installed, we commission the system, and make sure it’s working right. We make sure the system is connected to the power grid and ready to earn you credits on your bill. The monitoring is also set up so you can see what it’s making.

Warranty

The last step is making sure you’re happy and the system is built to last. We only use quality materials, the kind that hold up for decades. Panels and inverters come with strong warranties for performance and reliability, and we walk you through what’s covered so there are no surprises.

And when the system is complete, we don’t just pack up and disappear. Every install comes with an industry leading 10-year workmanship warranty against defects, on top of the manufacturer coverage. If something ever comes up, you call us and we make it right. That’s the peace of mind we promise.
