Our Promise
We Make Solar Simple
Whether you’re powering a home or a business, going solar shouldn’t be complicated. We handle every detail — from design to permits to installation — so you can focus on the benefits, not the paperwork.
We Help You Live Lighter
Our mission is to help Nova Scotians reduce their reliance on the grid with clean, renewable solar energy. By cutting your power costs and carbon footprint, we make sustainability a smart choice for both families and organizations.
We’re the Responsible Choice for Your Forever Property
Your property is one of your most important investments. Our team treats it with care — working with precision, safety, and attention to detail — to deliver a system that looks great, performs flawlessly, and lasts for decades.
Our Mission
We’re accelerating Atlantic Canada’s transition to clean energy — one home, one roof, and one family at a time.
Our origin Story
A road trip in a solar-powered van sparked the idea for Solar Ascent: to make clean energy simple, accessible, and reliable for Nova Scotians.
Since then, we’ve installed over 10,000 solar panels and completed nearly 500 residential and commercial projects — from family homes to farms, schools, and businesses. With every project, we bring the same spirit of innovation, craftsmanship, and community that started it all.
Our impact
Every solar project we build makes a lasting difference – for our customers, our province and our planet.
- 10,000+ solar panels installed
- 450+ homes, farms and businesses powered by clean energy
