Solar Panels for Businesses

Cut Energy Costs, Boost Your Bottom Line

If your business, farm, condo, or commercial property is paying high electricity bills, solar can be a smart long-term investment. By generating your own clean power, you reduce operating costs, protect against rising utility rates, and showcase your commitment to sustainability.

But commercial solar projects are more complex than residential ones. Choosing the right installer, understanding available incentives, and comparing quotes can feel overwhelming.

That’s where Quotepath comes in.
We’re not an installer — we’re Canada’s trusted broker for commercial solar quotes. Our role is to help you determine if solar is a good fit, identify incentives you can use, gather competitive quotes from our network of proven installers, and guide you in selecting the best option for your business.

Here’s how Quotepath helps businesses get solar panels

Step 1: Free Preliminary Analysis

Once you share your details, we’ll:

Review your electricity usage and available roof or land space
Provide a custom solar layout for your site
Share a cost range based on similar recent projects in our database
Estimate annual savings and energy production
List eligible grants and incentives

This no-cost, no-obligation step helps you determine whether the project is worth pursuing before committing further.

Step 2: Information Gathering

Commercial projects require deeper analysis than residential ones. This may involve an upfront service fee due to the added time and site work needed. We’ll handle:

Collecting recent electricity bills, usage data, and building plans (if available)
Taking measurements, photos, and videos of your roof and electrical systems (site visit if required)
Meeting with your team to understand goals, site preferences, and operational needs
Reviewing requirements for any grants or financing you plan to use

By centralizing this process, we save you the hassle of repeating the same steps with multiple installers.

Step 3: Quote Tendering

We compile the data into a tender package and send it to select installers from our network who are best suited for your project.

Installers design their own systems, giving you valuable variations to compare
If you have preferred installers, we can invite them to participate (if they’re willing)
Gathering three solid quotes can take up to three weeks to ensure accuracy and detail

Step 4: Quote Analysis

We review each quote to ensure:

It fits your electrical system’s capacity (current or future upgrades)
It’s priced competitively
It includes all necessary equipment, warranties, and realistic production estimates

You’ll receive a clear side-by-side comparison with financial projections so you can see exactly how each option stacks up.

Step 5: Quote Review Meeting

We meet virtually or in person with your decision-makers to walk through each proposal, highlight the pros and cons, and answer your questions. Our advice is unbiased — we have no preference for which installer you choose.

Step 6: Installation

Once you choose an installer, we hand the project over to them. We don’t manage the installation, but we’re always available if you have questions or need advice during the process.
