Protect Yourself from Rising Electricity Costs
The more you pay for electricity – the more you benefit by going solar.
Choosing solar energy allows you to save money by avoiding these high electricity rates.
The Manitoba Energy Board raised all rates by 20% for the year 2024.
With energy prices expected to rise even more, going solar protects you from increasing costs by generating your own power.

Net Metering Program
How Net Metering Works in Manitoba
Your solar system will connect to the grid via the Net-Metering program. Excess energy you produce is saved in credits by your power company at the retail electricity rate, balancing out your usage across day and night, as well as summer and winter months.
In Manitoba, with Time-of-Use billing, On-Peak hours coincide with peak solar generation times, earning you credits at higher On-Peak rates.
Net Metering in Manitoba makes it simple for a home solar installation to cover your bills year-round.
Solar System Packages
All packages include professional installation, permits, and 25-year warranty.

Solar FAQs for Steinbach Residents
Get answers to common questions about solar energy in Steinbach.
Efficiency Manitoba offers $0.50 per watt installed, up to a maximum of $5,000 per home. Systems larger than 10 kW are eligible but the rebate caps at 10 kW. Your contractor must be registered with Efficiency Manitoba. Submit your application within 90 days of system commissioning.
Manitoba Hydro uses net billing (not 1:1 net metering). Excess generation is credited at $0.04390/kWh until March 2026 – significantly less than the retail rate. This affects the payback calculation compared to provinces with full net metering.
Due to low electricity rates and unfavorable net billing credits, payback in Manitoba is typically 15-22 years – one of the longest in Canada. However, the $5,000 rebate helps reduce upfront costs, and solar still provides long-term savings and protection against future rate increases.
Your home must be connected to Manitoba Hydro’s grid, be your primary residence occupied year-round, and be heated year-round. Eligible property types include single-detached, semi-detached, mobile homes on permanent foundations, and small multiplexes with their own meter.
