Solacity – Canada’s Solar Specialists!
(Rhymes with “capacity”)
Great pricing on solar supplies and other renewable energy goods; solar panels, inverters, batteries, charge controllers, racking etc. We can also help you design your system and give useful installation advice!
Solacity Inc. is a Canadian distributor and retailer of renewable energy products and other green goods based in the Kemptville (North Grenville) area, just a short drive south of Ottawa, in Ontario. Since 2006 we have been helping our customers in all corners of Canada (and some in the rest of the world as well) to become a little more green: We supply wholesale to solar PV installers and large projects, retail goods to customers that want to do a DIY solar installation, and if you need renewable energy advice, or design services please do not hesitate to contact us, we are here to help you.
More than an online Web store, Solacity has an actual brick-and-mortar storefront (or straw-bale in our case).

Rob’s Rumblings
Solar Panels, Tilt-Angle, and Winter

Walking The Walk
Solacity does not just talk-the-talk, we actually walk-the-walk with our 9,000 square feet super-efficient straw-bale office & warehouse in Kemptville, North Grenville!
The building is all-electrical, no fossil fuels, with net-zero-plus potential (once the rooftop solar is in place we will produce about twice as much energy as we use, including heating). Some features include, passive solar, day-lighting (natural light) through light-shelves (seen by the position of the awnings). We have strawbale walls with insulation values well beyond the industry standard, geothermal heat-pump with in-floor hydronic heating, passive solar for the office, with triple-pane glazing, and energy-efficient T5-HE lighting. Oh, and what is a sustainable design without a perfect 180 degree azimuth roof, specifically designed for our 100 kW FIT project!
