With over 2,000 hours of sunshine per year, Vernon and the North Okanagan are among the best locations in Canada to harness solar power. At Hadwin’s HVAC, Plumbing & Electrical, we help homeowners and businesses transition to clean, renewable energy with “Hotwire-style” precision and localized expertise.
Whether you’re looking to eliminate your monthly BC Hydro bill or want to increase your property value, our Red Seal electricians provide end-to-end solar solutions tailored to the Vernon climate.
Installing solar is more than just putting panels on a roof; it’s about creating an integrated electrical ecosystem for your home.
Residential Solar PV Systems: We design and install custom Photovoltaic (PV) arrays that blend seamlessly with your home’s architecture. Our systems are built to withstand Okanagan winters while maximizing summer intake.
Grid-Tied & Battery Backup: Stay powered even when the grid goes down. We specialize in grid-tied systems that allow you to sell excess power back to the utility, as well as advanced battery storage (like the Tesla Powerwall) for total energy independence.
Solar-Ready Electrical Upgrades: Thinking of solar in the future? We can “solar-ready” your home during a panel upgrade or renovation, ensuring your electrical system is prepared for future arrays without costly retrofitting.
EV Charging Integration: Pair your solar array with a Level 2 EV charging station. Power your vehicle with the sun and move toward a truly zero-emission lifestyle right here in Vernon.

One of the biggest advantages of choosing Hadwin’s is our expertise in the financial side of renewable energy. We don’t just install panels; we help you pay for them.
CleanBC & Federal Incentives: We guide Vernon residents through the available federal grants and interest-free loans (such as the Canada Greener Homes Loan), which can provide up to $40,000 in financing for solar installations.
FortisBC & BC Hydro Net Metering: We handle the complex application process for net metering, ensuring you get full credit for every kilowatt-hour of clean energy you send back to the grid.
While many solar companies are “install-only” outfits, Hadwin’s is a full-service mechanical and electrical contractor.
Holistic Home Efficiency: We understand how your solar system interacts with your Heat Pump, Electric Water Heater, and HVAC system. We optimize your solar output to match your home’s specific energy-consumption patterns.
TSBC Certified Safety: Solar systems involve high-voltage DC electricity. Our team is fully licensed by Technical Safety BC, ensuring your installation is fire-safe, code-compliant, and built to last for 25+ years.
Local Vernon Support: We are based right here in the North Okanagan. If you have questions or need a system check-up after a heavy snowfall, our local Vernon team is just a phone call away.
Stop renting your power from the utility and start owning it. Join the hundreds of Vernon residents making the switch to a cleaner, more affordable future.
