Our Proven Process
Our process keeps solar simple. Click below to see how we leverage our experience to guide you from first conversation to final connection.
1
Site Assessment & Feasibility
-
Every project begins with a comprehensive site and technical feasibility study. We evaluate solar irradiance and production potential, grid capacity and interconnection options, zoning and environmental constraints, and financial modeling that includes available incentives and tax benefits. Our goal is to ensure your system is tailored to meet both your energy needs and financial expectations from the start.
2
Engineering & Design
-
Our engineering team develops detailed, stamped structural and electrical drawings, complete with load assessments and site-specific mounting system designs. Each layout is optimized for efficiency, durability, and compliance with provincial codes and utility requirements. By combining advanced modeling tools with practical experience, we ensure your system performs reliably for decades.
3
Permitting & Approvals
-
Ontario’s regulatory landscape is complex, but we handle it for you. Our team coordinates municipal planning and building approvals, Renewable Energy Approvals (where required), and all interactions with utilities, the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA), and conservation authorities. Where applicable, we also engage with Indigenous and community stakeholders to ensure every project is fully compliant and locally supported.
4
Incentive Management
-
We submit all relevant incentives, keeping you informed from approval to payment.
Detailed: We structure projects to take full advantage of financial opportunities. This includes managing applications for federal and provincial tax credits, grants, and rebates, as well as ensuring eligibility for net-metering or other offtake mechanisms. By staying on top of deadlines and paperwork, we maximize the financial return of your solar investment while keeping the process seamless for you.
5
Procurement & Installation
-
Once approvals are in place, we manage the procurement of CSA/UL-certified equipment, drawing on strong supplier partnerships to source reliable, high-performance components. Our construction teams carry out all civil work, racking, electrical installation, and inverter setup with strict safety oversight and quality control. Licensed and trained in commercial-scale builds, our partners deliver installations that stand the test of time.
6
Commissioning & Quality Assurance
-
We coordinate final inspections with the ESA and your local utility, including installation of net-metering or bi-directional meters and full utility energization. Our team conducts thorough performance and safety testing, sets up real-time monitoring, and provides you with system training. From the first panel to the final connection, we make sure your system is fully operational and you’re confident in its performance.
7
Ongoing Monitoring & Support
-
Our commitment doesn’t end once the system is switched on. We offer continuous remote monitoring and detailed reporting, preventive and corrective maintenance, and full warranty management. If needed, we also plan for long-term system optimization and eventual decommissioning. With Moose Power, your investment is supported throughout its entire lifecycle.
Let us complete the first step — with absolutely no obligation.

Power Distribution Programs
Understanding which power distribution arrangement is optimal for you is one of the many details we look after so that you don’t have to. But should you be interested, we explain the difference below.
-
This legacy system type allows you to generate as much electricity as your rooftop(s) will allow. Excess electricity is exported to the utility and you receive credits. When your building consumes more than it is producing, energy is pulled from the grid and credits are drawn down.
Surplus electricity is sent to the grid
NET METERING
LOAD DISPLACEMENT
-
This newer system type was recently introduced to alleviate burden on the grid by encouraging power to be used where it is generated. Your system is designed to match your building's load, and the electricity you produce is used for your own consumption.
Load Displacement is ideal for those whose energy consumption is relatively stable and predictable.
Requires electricity to be used on-site
For clients with existing FIT contracts
RE-POWER
-
Re-powering offers a unique opportunity to maximize returns. By replacing older, less efficient solar equipment with today’s high-performance technology, you can generate significantly more power on the same footprint—while still receiving the original higher FIT rate per kilowatt. Advances in solar efficiency mean modern panels are smaller, more powerful, and better at converting sunlight into energy.
This upgrade allows you to get more out of your existing system and site, without expanding the space it occupies.
-

Asset valuation -
A well-designed and maintained commercial solar system can operate for 25 to 35 years or more. While the solar panels typically maintain strong performance for decades, inverters and certain electrical components may require replacement during the system’s life. Moose Power designs systems with premium components to maximize long-term reliability in Ontario’s climate.
-
Going solar can significantly reduce or eliminate your electricity costs, protect you from rising utility rates, and increase your property’s value. For commercial systems, solar can also generate strong returns through energy savings and incentive programs, often achieving payback in just a few years and continuing to provide free or low-cost energy for decades.
-
Your system will be backed by manufacturer warranties and our performance guarantees. If an issue arises, Moose Power will coordinate with the appropriate warranty providers and service teams to diagnose and resolve the problem quickly, ensuring minimal downtime.
-
Moose Power offers ongoing performance monitoring and preventative maintenance for commercial and industrial solar systems in Ontario. We track system performance in real time, respond quickly to any issues, and conduct routine inspections to ensure maximum energy production and long-term reliability.
-
We can design and manage system expansions to meet higher energy demands, relocations for when you move facilities, and re-powers to replace aging equipment with modern, high-efficiency technology. This ensures your system remains cost-effective, compliant, and optimized for Ontario’s climate and energy market.
-
When a system reaches the end of its productive life, it can often be re-powered—meaning old panels and equipment are replaced with modern, higher-efficiency technology, while reusing existing infrastructure where possible. In other cases, systems can be decommissioned and fully recycled. Moose Power can manage the entire process, ensuring compliance with Ontario’s environmental and safety regulations.
