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. The Ontario Energy Board raised all rates by 20% for the year 2024. With energy prices expected to rise even more, going solar protects you from increasing costs by generating your own power.
