Solar panels in Sherwood Park.
A master-electrician-led install built for Strathcona County's big modern rooftops — LONGi 500W panels and APsystems DS3 microinverters since 2018. We're one of the few crews that can legally pull your County solar permit, and we file your FortisAlberta micro-generation and CEIP financing end to end.
Built on big, modern, solar-ready roofs.
Sherwood Park is the urban heart of Strathcona County and one of the largest hamlets in Canada — a planned community of roughly 72,000 people just 20 minutes east of Edmonton across the Anthony Henday. Where older neighbourhoods elsewhere battle mature tree cover, Sherwood Park's newer subdivisions — Summerwood, Emerald Hills, Lakeland Ridge and Clarkdale Meadows — were built with wide, unshaded, south-facing rooflines.
Pair that roof space with above-average home sizes — and the bigger power bills that come with them — and Strathcona County homeowners see some of the fastest solar payback in the Edmonton region. It helps that this is an energy town: with Alberta's Industrial Heartland on the County's doorstep, plenty of Sherwood Park homeowners read a power bill and a payback period for a living — and they tend to do the math before we do. At 53.5°N, every one of those roofs still banks 2,300+ hours of sun a year.
What homeowners say about Stellar Upgrades
The 2% solar loan most Alberta towns don't have.
Strathcona County is one of the few Alberta municipalities running the Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) — and it's the single biggest reason going solar in Sherwood Park can be close to cash-flow positive from year one.
- Up to 100% financing — no down payment, no home-equity line required.
- ~2% interest, well below a typical solar loan or HELOC.
- A 5% completion incentive applied to your project.
- Repaid on your property tax bill over terms up to 20 years — and it stays with the home if you sell.
Illustration only — not a quote. Rates, incentives and CEIP availability are set by Strathcona County and Alberta Municipalities and change over time; intake can also pause on a waitlist. A well-sized system often offsets most or all of a larger Sherwood Park home's power bill, so the payment can land close to cash-flow neutral. We run your real numbers at the free assessment.
In Strathcona County, only a Master Electrician can pull your solar permit.
It's a County rule many homeowners only discover after signing with an out-of-town sales company that subcontracts the work. The Sherwood Park solar permit must be applied for by a Master Electrician, backed by a roof-load letter and reviewed by a Safety Codes Officer. Stellar Upgrades is master-electrician-led and fully in-house — so we don't just install your system, we're the ones legally accountable for it. Wires are FortisAlberta, with net metering under Alberta's Micro-Generation Regulation. How to vet an Alberta installer →

Solar across every Sherwood Park subdivision.
Sherwood Park splits neatly into two solar stories. Every design starts with a free on-site roof, shading and electrical-panel assessment.
New-build Sherwood Park
Modern subdivisions with large, unshaded south- and west-facing rooflines — ideal for 7–15 kW systems that erase the whole bill. Many carry architectural-control guidelines; we prepare the panel-layout submission so it clears review the first time.
Mature Sherwood Park
The original 1970s–90s neighbourhoods. Roofs are still great for solar — we just check the electrical panel and any shading first, and APsystems DS3 microinverters keep each panel independent so a single shaded module never drags the array down.
On an acreage in rural Strathcona County — Ardrossan, Antler Lake, Josephburg or South Cooking Lake? Ground-mount arrays are an option there, and pair naturally with an EP Cube battery.
One crew for solar, battery & EV.
The same in-house, master-electrician-led crew handles all three — one accountable team, one warranty, zero subcontractors.
