Solar Performance in Regina
System Effectiveness
Saskatchewan is the best province for solar energy production in all of Canada, receiving more sunlight than any other province or territory. Regina is situated in a prime region of the province for sunlight, allowing it to surpass the province’s already impressive average solar panel performance. Solar installations in Regina are highly efficient, overperforming to an average of 1,361 kWh of electricity per year for every 1 kW installed. Saskatchewan has the fourth highest electricity costs of Canadian provinces. Saskatchewan’s power prices are about 25% higher than the national average. Saskatchewan also tends to have power rate increases of 1–3% yearly. 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. With energy prices expected to rise, going solar protects you from increasing costs by generating your own power.

Solar Panels in Regina, Saskatchewan
Regina has exceptional solar production at 1,340 kWh/kW – among the highest in Canada. However, SaskPower’s net metering credit of 7.5¢/kWh (about 41% of retail) results in longer payback periods than provinces with full retail-rate credits. The honest payback for a 10kW system in Regina is 13-17 years.
That said, Saskatchewan’s electricity rates are rising – 3.9% in 2026, 3.9% in 2027 – improving solar ROI over time. Every rate increase makes your fixed solar cost more valuable.
Saskatchewan has the highest solar irradiance in Canada, and Regina is one of the province’s top-producing cities.
SaskPower Net Metering in Regina
SaskPower’s net metering program allows residential systems up to 100 kW. Excess energy is credited at 7.5¢/kWh – credits never expire until your account closes.
The current net metering program has been extended to March 31, 2029. Terms after 2029 have not been announced.
Unlike Saskatoon, where Saskatoon Light & Power historically offered 1:1 net metering (ended for new customers November 26, 2025), all of Regina is served by SaskPower at the 7.5¢ rate.
