ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
Bernard Thompson Thankyou to Solar Ascent for our solar panels. Installing went perfect. Glad we choose this company. Wishing them a great solar future. Amazing results for our first year. Thankyou so much sarah march My solar panels are up and running! On time, on budget and working perfectly. Now....that's rare. I am having fun watching my phone app . It shows me exactly how many KWh they are producing in real time ( and knowing my power bills are going down - down - down.) The could not have asked for nicer, more polite, friendly and knowledgeable staff. They walked me through the whole process. They even sent me messages to remind me to do things that I had forgotten about - Thanks Morgain Mason you were so helpful. Becky Carter Our experience with Solar Ascent has been nothing but positive. From the start, Morgaine and the team were extremely helpful and responsive. We were very happy with the amount of communication during the planning and installation process. We love our solar panels and have reaped the benefits ever since. Would highly recommend and we would use them again if ever needed. Greg Pottinger One year into my solar adventure. The install went very well and more importantly the follow on support and help really made this a great experience. Solar Ascent is a business I highly recommend. I've been doing so to friends and acquaintances for the past year! Drew Parks Almost two years ago now, we contacted three solar panel installation companies for information and quotes regarding our desire to access solar energy in our 1883 South Shore home. After in-depth conversations with all three, our choice became obvious to us as the Solar Ascent quote was certainly competitive, sales staff interaction was easy and informative and the company was local! Our confidence in Solar Ascent was not misplaced. From first conversations to final installation in April of 2024, we interacted with their competent staff who seemed to genuinely care about their role in the renewable energy industry. The installation was completed in two separate days, between NS Power inspections, and from on-site staff safety briefings to final cleanup, the installation crew was professional and thorough. One year later, we are enjoying our solar production and have virtually eliminated power bills. Our ability to watch the production, in real time, on the Solar Edge app is slightly addictive but a great way to monitor the process. Cheers to Solar Ascent for a great job done! Drew and Clare Parks David Chaplin-Saunders One year later the team sent a notice that our actual production was 3.5% more than the original estimate. Great service and follow up! Thanks again, David The Solar Ascent team did an amazing job. The communication from the project manager was timely, clear, informative and responsive to our questions. The installation team for the racking and the panels were efficient, respectful, clean and thorough. They worked with all appropriate safety equipment and were properly staffed. All arrangements with NSP went without a hitch. The system was installed very quickly. A wonderful company to work with! Harry Scadding Solar Ascent is your go to ! Great bunch of happy, professional people! Highly recommend 👌 Jason Martell My experience with Solar Ascent to help design and build our residential solar tie-in system met all my expectations and more. I could not recommend them more highly. Professional, knowledgeable, courteous, respectful, safety-conscious are some of the words that come to my mind when thinking of all my interactions with their team throughout the process. As a business owner, I aspire to offer the service they provided. Thank you Solar Ascent! Edis Flewwelling Solar Ascent's plan was simple. The loan structure in Nova Scotia is NOT, but the team made it easy to navigate. The installers were courteous and knowledgeable. I work in construction and was happy to see that they were also very safe.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 65 reviews

Valley Home
When we first met with the husband and wife who recently moved to this home outside Truro, NS, we knew they found their “forever home”. This freshly built, fully electric home was going to cost a lot of money to provide grid power in the years and decades to come for their growing family.
