Strathmore Solar Assessments for Businesses and Wheatland County Farms

Strathmore is a town of about 14,300 people on Highway 1, around 50 km east of Calgary, with Highway 817 running south. Agriculture is the town's economic base, oil and gas exploration is a growing interest in the area, and commercial development has added franchise restaurants and big-box stores.

For businesses in Strathmore, the case for solar usually comes down to a flat roof, steady daytime hours and a building the owner plans to keep. Retail, light industrial and storage buildings fit that better than operations with large motors or compressors starting and stopping all day, because those short spikes are what drive demand charges.

Farms and acreages around Strathmore, in Wheatland County, are the other side of the picture: more open ground for a ground-mount, but loads spread across several buildings. In both cases the fixed charges on the bill continue, and the power you export is credited to pay them, so we begin with a free audit of your bills.
