Solar Performance in Toronto
System Effectiveness
Ontario has the 5th highest potential to produce solar energy out of Canadian provinces. Southern Ontario gets some of the best sunlight in the country, making Toronto a great place for home solar. Solar installations in Toronto are highly efficient, overperforming to an average of 1,163 kWh of electricity per year for every 1 kW installed. The more you pay for electricity – the more you benefit by going solar. Choosing solar energy allows you to save money by avoiding these high electricity rates.

Net Metering Program
How Net Metering Works in Ontario
Your solar system will connect to the grid via Toronto Hydro's 'Enhanced Net-Metering' program. Excess energy you produce is saved in credits on your power bill at the retail electricity rate. Unused energy can be used in the future to balance out your usage across day and night, as well as peak summer and low winter months. Toronto Hydro's time-of-use rates allow you to earn more power bill credits by generating energy during peak times where energy is more expensive. Toronto Hydro's net metering program makes it simple for a home solar installation to cover your bills year-round.
