Solar and Energy Costs in Ponoka
Ponoka is a town of about 7,300 people in Ponoka County, at Highways 2A and 53. It is 59 km north of Red Deer and 95 km south of Edmonton, and the county office is in town. Grain and cattle are the main farm activities, oil and gas is part of the local economy, and the Ponoka Stampede is the town's best-known event.
Cattle operations have a steady, year-round load that suits solar: lighting, water pumping, fans and shop equipment. This is also where LED lighting often comes first, because cutting the lighting load before sizing panels can mean a smaller system for the same bill.
For businesses in town, the questions are daytime usage, roof space and demand charges. The fixed charges on any bill continue with solar, and the power you export is credited on the same bill to pay them, so we begin with a free audit of your bills.
