About us

An independent guide to going solar in Canada

Maple Point Canada exists because the honest information about residential solar is scattered across utility PDFs, installer brochures, and out-of-date blog posts. We gather it, check it against current rules, and write it in plain language.

What we stand for

Useful, current, and honest about money

A homeowner should be able to tell, in five minutes, whether solar is worth a serious look for their roof — and trust that nobody paid us to nudge the answer.

Independence first

Editorial scoring and advertising are run separately. A company can advertise; it cannot buy a rating.

Kept current

Programs and rates change constantly in Canada. We date our claims and revise pages when the rules move.

Honest about risk

We flag the catches — escalator clauses, roof condition, optimistic production estimates — even when it costs a referral.

Built for Canada

Winter output, net metering, provincial programs: the things generic solar content skips are the things we focus on.

Who we are

Based in Vancouver, covering the whole country

Maple Point Canada is published by Maple Point Media Inc., a company registered in British Columbia. Our editors research provincial programs, read the fine print on installer contracts, and maintain the tools and guides on this site.

We are not engineers, electricians, or financial advisers, and nothing here is a substitute for a professional site assessment. Think of us as the well-organised research you would do yourself if you had the time.

See how we keep it honest

Our editorial standards and our disclosure on commissions are both public. Read them, then put us to the test.

No obligation. We pass your request to vetted, certified installers in your area.
