Solar Programs
Two ways your system can earn you more — most Solar YYC customers should join both.
A rate plan built for solar owners. Switch to the HI rate in summer to earn a higher credit on every exported kWh, and the LO rate in winter for cheaper grid power.
- 3% cashback on imported electricity and bundled gas
- $100 off your first bill with promo code SYYC100
- Sign up online in under 5 minutes
Best rate by season
Your clean power becomes an annual cheque. Solar Offset sells the carbon offsets your system creates and mails you a payment every year, for up to 10 years.
- They handle the paperwork — you send one bill a year
- As carbon prices rise, your payment rises with them
- Locally owned, with 10% of profits funding renewables training for Albertans
Before you sign up
You own a grid-connected Alberta solar system, which makes you a micro-generator — that is the only membership requirement.
Your bidirectional meter was installed when your system received Permission to Operate.
Have your Site ID handy — it is on your System Info page, and you will be asked for it when enrolling.
Which one is for you? Do both.
| Solar Club | Solar Offset | |
|---|---|---|
| What you earn | A higher credit on every kWh you export to the grid | An annual payment for your verified carbon offsets |
| Your effort | Switch between the HI and LO rates twice a year | Send your production data and one power bill, once a year |
| Payout | On your monthly power bill | An annual cheque or deposit |
| Together? | Yes — the same production earns the export credit and the offset income. Most Solar YYC customers can enroll in both. | |
