To get started, all you need is a southern facing roof or area in your yard with enough space for a solar array. If you own a cabin or if you are a homeowner, give us a call. With our years of experience we can usually determine over the phone if your property is a good candidate.
Based on Prince George weather averages from BC Hydro, NASA, and our own data collecting, a 1KW string of solar modules (4 - 250 watt modules) will produce on average 1600 kWh yearly ($158.40 @ 9.9c/kWh). Nonetheless, all homes are different and everyone has different needs. In order to provide the most cost effective design, we must first perform an in-depth evaluation of your energy usage.
For a little more money, we are able to supply and install an RV system with an MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) charge controller, which will give 30% more power output than an older technology PWM charge controller.
If your existing system is not performing to your expectations, we can diagnose the problem and offer a solution. Don’t let a faulty system drain your wallet, simply give us a call. At SS Solar we have a very comprehensive approach in determining potential savings, and use scientific methods to analyze and optimize existing systems.
At SS Solar, we have researched many renewable energy manufacturers and have chosen equipment that stands up to the harsh elements of the northern climates as well as honor the budgets of our Prince George clients.
