Solar Panels in Mississauga, Ontario
Mississauga, Ontario's 6th largest city, is served by Alectra Utilities and produces approximately 1,170 kWh per kW of installed solar capacity annually. Ontario's Time-of-Use pricing means solar earns maximum credits during on-peak hours (15.7¢/kWh) - the highest rate tier.
Ontario's net metering program credits excess solar at the full retail rate. Credits roll over for 12 months, balancing summer production against winter usage. Mississauga homeowners can access HRSP ($10K for solar + battery) or net metering (1:1 retail credits) - but not both.
Ontario HRSP - Up to $10,000 for Solar + Battery
Ontario's Home Renovation Savings Program (HRSP), launched January 2025, offers:
- Up to $5,000 for solar panels ($1,000/kW)
- Up to $5,000 for battery storage
- Maximum total program rebate: $12,000 (across all eligible upgrades)
Important - HRSP vs. Net Metering: Solar installed under HRSP must be sized for on-site load displacement only - net metering is not permitted under HRSP. If you prefer net metering (earning 1:1 credits for excess solar), you would not apply through HRSP. Your Xolar advisor can help determine which option provides the best return.
Note: The Canada Greener Homes Grant and Loan programs are now closed.

Net Metering Program
How Net Metering Works in Ontario
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 Ontario, 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 Ontario makes it simple for a home solar installation to cover your bills year-round.
