Solar Power for Windsor & Essex County
Windsor Solar Pros installs rooftop and ground-mount solar across Windsor, LaSalle, Tecumseh, Amherstburg, and the Leamington greenhouse belt. Essex County sits in one of Canada's best solar zones, so every panel produces more here, and the region's heavy farm and greenhouse electricity loads make net metering pay off fast.

Canada-Leading Sun, Real Bill Savings
Windsor Solar Pros is the Essex County solar practice of The Hayter Group, backed by the Jayden's Mechanical family for local service across the Windsor region.
Essex County co-leads the country in solar irradiance, which means a system here generates more kilowatt-hours per panel than almost anywhere else in Ontario. That pairs powerfully with the greenhouse and farm electricity loads around Leamington, Kingsville, and Amherstburg that net metering can offset month after month.

From Profile to Net-Metered Production
Honest sizing, a clean fit-out, and monitoring from day one.
Usage Profile & Roof/Land Check
We review a year of your hydro usage and assess your Windsor roof or Essex County land for orientation, shading, and structure, then size the array to your real consumption.
Array + Inverter Fit-Out
Our crew installs the panels, inverter, and monitoring, whether on a residential rooftop, a barn or greenhouse roof, or a rural ground-mount positioned for peak harvest.
Net-Metering Activation + Monitoring
We complete the utility net-metering setup and walk you through the production app, with battery storage available to keep essentials on through county storm outages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Costs, timing, warranties, and emergencies: we answer the questions we hear most often.
How does solar net metering work in Ontario?
With net metering, your solar panels send excess electricity to the grid during sunny hours and you receive a credit at your retail electricity rate. Those credits offset the power you pull from the grid at night or in winter. Over a year, a properly sized system can offset most or all of your electricity use.
Is Windsor and Essex County a good area for solar?
Yes. Essex County co-leads Ontario in solar irradiance, so a panel here produces among the most of anywhere in the province. Windsor's dense urban rooftops and the greenhouse belt and farm country around Leamington, Kingsville, and Amherstburg make it one of the strongest solar markets in Canada.
Should I choose a rooftop or a ground-mount solar array?
A rooftop array uses your existing roof and stays out of the way, while a ground-mount sits on your land and can be angled and oriented perfectly for maximum production, with easier snow clearing and maintenance. Essex farm properties with open land are often ideal for a ground-mount.
How big a solar system do I need?
We size the system to your annual electricity usage, measured from a year of hydro bills, so that net-metered production offsets your consumption over the year. A free assessment looks at your usage, roof or land, shading, and goals to recommend the right size.
Can solar power my home or farm during an outage?
A standard grid-tied solar system shuts off when the grid goes down for safety. To keep running through an outage you add battery storage with an islanding inverter, which keeps your essentials powered. This is especially useful across Essex County where lake-effect storms and high winds can knock out power.
Can solar work for farms and greenhouses?
Yes. Essex County farms and greenhouse operations are among the best solar candidates in Canada because of the open land for ground-mount arrays, large barn and greenhouse roofs, and heavy electricity loads for lighting, heating, and ventilation that net metering can offset.
Does a solar system need much maintenance?
Very little. Solar panels have no moving parts, so maintenance is mostly occasional cleaning and an inverter check. We set up monitoring so you can see production at a glance and catch any issue early.
Do you serve areas outside of Windsor?
Yes. We serve Windsor and the surrounding Essex County communities including LaSalle, Tecumseh, Amherstburg, Leamington, Lakeshore, Belle River, and Essex.
