Across Canada, solar professionals are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with clean energy. At APsystems, we’re proud to support that innovation with our advanced microinverter technology—now installed in more than 150 countries, generating over 6GW of power globally. But our success is only possible because of the creative, forward-thinking installers who turn great ideas into powerful systems every day.
Now, we’re shining a spotlight on the standout projects that exemplify solar excellence in Canada. This year’s winners delivered some of the most inventive and high-impact installations we’ve seen—each one a testament to the progress being made in solar design and execution. A sincere thank you to everyone who shared their work with us. The level of creativity and craftsmanship made the selection process incredibly tough—and incredibly inspiring.
In the residential category, Flux Renewables takes home the top prize for their 18.63kW install in the Rocky Mountain foothills of Alberta. Designed to power a working bed and breakfast, the system handles consistent shade from trees and cloud cover with ease. “The combination of safety, dependability, advanced tech, affordability, and simple installation made APsystems the right choice,” said CEO Tanner Robertson. “This setup experiences plenty of shade—yet the APsystems microinverters manage it efficiently.”
Ready Solar earns second place in residential for their battery-ready residential install in Surrey, BC. “With over 70% of our recent projects being battery backup installs, we love that these microinverters are battery compatible,” said Zahir Anwaaz. “It gives customers an upgrade option for the future.”
Geddes & Murphy Electric Ltd leads the way in the commercial category with their 135kW barn rooftop system at Hill Peak Farms. “We’ve installed around 1,000 APsystems microinverters and they’ve produced more energy than our estimates almost every time,” said Scott Geddes. “The ease of installation, pricing, and performance are hard to beat.”
AB Ltd O/A Solis Energy takes second place for their 35.6kW ground mount install near Olds, Alberta. “There’s no single point of failure, and the plug-and-play install made the job simple,” said Jon Schneider. “Our customer loves the monitoring system.”
Hansen Solar Energy wins in the nonprofit category for their work at the Bills Lane affordable housing project in Charlottetown, PEI. This 82.35kW system helps reduce energy costs for low-income residents while showcasing the power of clean energy for community housing. “The ability to mix panel orientations without losing efficiency was a game-changer,” said Lisa Gallant. “And the real-time monitoring gave our client the peace of mind they needed.”
This year, we introduced a new category: Multi-Family. Solar YYC earns this recognition for their 315kW system across four residential buildings in Calgary’s Copperfield Park II. “APsystems solved the rapid shutdown and MLPE needs across many roof faces,” said President Alex Tyndale. “It’s plug-and-play without sacrificing quality, and delivers real savings to residents.”
Each of these winning projects represents the best of what solar can offer—ingenuity, sustainability, and real-world impact. Congratulations to all of our 2024 Canadian Project of the Year winners! Your work not only lights up homes and businesses, but also inspires the future of solar energy across North America.
