Medicine Hat: One of Canada's Sunniest Cities for Solar

Medicine Hat has some of the highest solar production in all of Canada at 1,330 kWh/kW, thanks to its southeastern Alberta location and exceptional sunshine - over 2,500 hours annually.

Medicine Hat is unique - the city owns its own electric utility including generation, distribution, and retail. This means Medicine Hat is NOT part of Alberta's deregulated market. The city has historically offered solar incentive programs through its HAT Smart program.

Net Metering Program

How Net Metering Works in Alberta

Your solar system will connect to the grid via the Net-Metering program. Excess energy you produce is saved in credits by your power company at the retail electricity rate, balancing out your usage across day and night, as well as summer and winter months.

In Alberta, with Time-of-Use billing, On-Peak hours coincide with peak solar generation times, earning you credits at higher On-Peak rates.

Net Metering in Alberta makes it simple for a home solar installation to cover your bills year-round.
