Voltis solar Quebec
Frequently asked questions
Short, precise answers about solar, LogisVert, Sigenergy, and installation in Quebec.
How much does solar cost in Quebec?
Residential cost depends on system size, roof complexity, and electrical work. The Voltis quote estimates solar cost before and after LogisVert.
What is the LogisVert incentive?
LogisVert offers $1,000 per installed kW for eligible solar panels, up to 40% of eligible costs.
Are Sigenergy battery prices public?
No. Sigenergy pricing is not shown publicly; it is provided in a personalized follow-up.
Does Voltis serve Montreal?
Yes. Voltis serves all of Quebec, including Montreal, Quebec City, Trois-Rivieres, Sherbrooke, Gatineau, and Saguenay.
Do solar panels work in winter?
Yes. Production drops with shorter days and snow, but solar panels perform well in cold weather.
What is net metering?
Net metering lets surplus solar power flow to the Hydro-Quebec grid in exchange for kWh credits.
Do I need a battery?
No. A battery is useful for resilience, EV charging, and energy optimization, but solar-only systems can make sense.
How long does installation take?
A residential project typically takes 6 to 12 weeks from quote to power-on.
Must the panels be new?
Yes. LogisVert-eligible solar panels must be new.
Does Voltis have an RBQ licence?
The RBQ licensing file is in progress with a partner and the number will be displayed once available.
Can I charge an EV with solar?
Yes. Voltis can size a system for EV charging and, with Sigenergy, bidirectional DC charging depending on the project.
Are commercial projects eligible?
Yes. Commercial projects can use the Efficient Solutions program and OSE tool when conditions are met.
What system size should I choose?
System size depends on roof area, orientation, Hydro bill, and self-generation goals.
Does Voltis help with Hydro-Quebec?
Yes. Voltis supports connection, authorization, and incentive documentation.
How long do panels last?
Modern panels are generally designed to produce for decades with gradual degradation.
Can solar go on a metal roof?
Yes, many metal roofs are compatible after structural and mounting validation.
Is solar profitable in Quebec?
With LogisVert, payback can be much shorter than before, often around 10 to 12 years depending on the project.
What happens during an outage?
Without a battery, grid-tied solar usually shuts down. With compatible battery storage, backup can be configured.
Is the instant quote final?
No. The instant quote is preliminary and must be validated by Voltis.
How do I start?
