We Pride Ourselves on Our Dedication to Quality Solar Services.
For homeowners in British Columbia, solar installation Kelowna is an environmentally responsible and financially strategic choice. Our team at MAG Solar recently installed a 14.8 kW grid-tied residential system for Robert S.
We designed this project to offset Robert’s rising electricity costs while leveraging BC Hydro’s net metering incentives. With Kelowna’s high solar irradiance and stable grid access, this installation guarantees strong year-round performance.
Robert reached out to MAG Solar with a clear goal: to protect himself from rising electricity costs while making his home more energy efficient. He saw the financial and environmental benefits of solar energy. He wanted a system to cut his hydro bills, reduce his carbon footprint, and future-proof his energy needs.
BC Hydro’s $5,000 CleanBC rebate was a key incentive, making solar power more accessible and helping to offset upfront costs. Robert also wanted a solar partner with experience in Kelowna’s specific climate conditions and local permitting.
Our solar contractor designed a custom system specifically for Robert’s home in Kelowna. The design was tailored to local weather conditions, net metering opportunities, and his long-term energy goals. The result is a reliable, cost-effective setup supporting efficiency and savings.
We installed 36 monocrystalline 410w panels, known for their high energy yield and long-term durability. These panels maximize Kelowna’s sunny conditions and maintain strong production even during partially cloudy days.
A SolarEdge inverter system with module-level optimizers guarantees every panel performs at its best. This advanced setup lets each panel function independently to increase total system output and maintain efficiency when some panels are shaded.
Robert’s system was designed to fully take advantage of BC Hydro’s net metering program. Excess solar energy generated during peak sunlight is sent back to the grid to reduce his reliance on utility power and lower his monthly electricity costs.
We handled all permitting, approvals, and interconnection with BC Hydro. Our project managers streamlined each step (from application to inspection) to guarantee a smooth installation experience and fast system activation.
The system components were selected for Kelowna’s seasonal extremes, with corrosion-resistant racking and weather-sealed wiring that can handle heat, cold, and heavy winds. This ensures long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.
Robert’s installation met all requirements for the $5,000 CleanBC rebate. The system was designed with compliance in mind to maximize available incentives while supporting British Columbia’s sustainability goals.
Our team completed Robert’s Kelowna solar installation in just one day with our careful site assessment and streamlined logistics. This efficient process minimized disruption and ensured a smooth experience from start to finish. Project highlights include:
"I wanted to reduce my energy bills and make a more sustainable future for my home. MAG Solar handled everything, from permits to rebates, and the results speak for themselves. I’m already seeing savings, and the system looks great on the roof."

A 14.8 kW system can save homeowners up to $2,500–$3,500 per year, depending on usage, sunny months exposure, and whether the system includes battery backup systems.
Kelowna benefits from one of the highest solar irradiance levels in British Columbia and Western Canada, averaging 1,200 to 1,400 kWh/m² annually. This makes it more efficient for solar energy production compared to coastal cities, where cloud cover and rainfall reduce output potential.
The typical payback period ranges from 7 to 10 years but depends on system size, household usage, and local incentives. With rising utility rates and sunlight exposure, Kelowna homeowners and commercial properties hit break-even faster than the provincial average.
