FOR BUILDERS & HOMEOWNERS

Planning a net-zero
home in Vancouver?

Bring solar into the design before the roof, electrical room and service are final. We work alongside your builder and energy advisor to match renewable generation to the home’s energy model.

19%

A floor-space incentive worth planning for.

Vancouver offers a 19% floor-space increase for eligible smaller buildings meeting CHBA Net Zero or Passive House standards. The incentives are extended to October 31, 2030.

Certification, zoning, embodied carbon requirements and City approval apply. Solar panels alone do not qualify a project.

A solar layout should fit the home, not be squeezed in at the end.

BEFORE WE TALK

A few questions
you might have.

Read all FAQs
Does solar work on cloudy Vancouver days?

Yes. Panels can generate electricity from diffuse daylight, although output is lower than in full sun. We assess shading, orientation and seasonal weather rather than applying one production figure to every Vancouver roof.

Do I need a battery with solar?

A battery is optional. It can store energy for later use and provide outage backup when designed with the right transfer and isolation equipment. Your proposal should explain the circuits covered and estimated runtime.

Does installing solar make my home net zero?

Not by itself. Net Zero is a whole-home energy target involving the building envelope, mechanical systems, energy modelling and renewable generation. We coordinate the solar design with your builder and energy advisor.

How do BC Hydro solar credits work now?

New customers use self-generation Rate Schedule 2289. Exported electricity earns monetary generation credits at 10 cents per kWh. Those credits cover energy charges, not basic or other applicable charges.

How much does a solar installation cost?

Roof complexity, system size, equipment, electrical work and optional batteries all affect the quote. We start with your property and electricity use, then explain the scope and any applicable rebates.
