Stratas & multi‑unit residential (MURBs)
Solar your whole council can get behind.
Lower common‑area costs, backup for shared systems, and a modern building — presented in a way that clears a strata vote. We prepare the numbers, the program pathway, and the resilience case so your council can decide with confidence.
Why stratas act now
Shared costs down. Shared resilience up.
Cut common‑area power
Elevators, parkade lighting, ventilation, hallways, amenity rooms — solar offsets the loads your strata fees pay for every month.
Resilience for the building
Battery storage keeps critical shared systems — life‑safety, elevators, entry, water — running through the winter outages that hit coastal BC.
A more valuable building
Lower operating costs and modern infrastructure make units more attractive and help the strata plan for the future, not just react to bills.
Getting the incentives right
MURBs have their own rebate pathway.
This is where honesty matters. Multi‑unit residential buildings are not eligible for BC Hydro’s $20,000 business rebate — that program is for commercial accounts. BC Hydro runs separate offers for stratas, multi‑unit residential, and social/affordable housing.
We map your building to the correct program, model whether common‑metered or unit‑level solar makes more sense, and build the funding case — so nobody on council is promised a number that doesn’t apply.
Get your building assessed →We prepare the strata vote
Installing solar on the roof typically changes common property, which under BC’s Strata Property Act usually needs a ¾ vote at a general meeting. We give your council the package to make that vote easy:
- A clear cost, savings, and payback summary
- The applicable rebate/program pathway
- Roof, structural, and interconnection considerations
- An optional in‑person presentation to your council or AGM
General information, not legal advice — confirm approval requirements with your strata’s bylaws and legal counsel.
For councils & property managers
Bring us in before your next AGM.
We’ll assess the building, prepare a council‑ready proposal, and answer owners’ questions — so solar is a confident “yes,” not a maybe.
