Generate Heat and Power with Micro CHP Technology in Alberta

Looking for an efficient way to heat your home while generating electricity? Micro Combined Heat and Power (Micro CHP) systems do both—using a single fuel source, usually natural gas or propane.

These compact systems create heat and electricity at the same time, making them incredibly efficient. They’re ideal for homes with steady heating needs, especially in Alberta’s colder climate.

Micro CHP systems offer year-round comfort, protect you from power outages, and reduce your dependence on the grid. Even during blackouts or winter storms, you stay warm and powered.

By producing energy where it’s used, these systems eliminate line losses and reduce waste. You can even sell extra electricity back to the grid, helping to lower your utility bills.

They’re also better for the environment. According to the U.S. EPA, a 10kW CHP system can cut your carbon footprint by up to 50%—equal to removing seven cars from the road.

Whether you live in the city or in a remote area, Micro CHP gives you reliable power, lower energy costs, and more control over your home’s energy future.

Combined Heat Power (CHP) & Micro Grids

Smart micro-grids are changing how to power homes and businesses. These systems create, manage, and store energy right onsite instead of relying fully on a central electrical utility grid.

Using CHP (Combined Heat and Power) Cogeneration  make the most of every unit of energy. Heat and electricity are produced together, and thermal energy is stored underground for later use.

Because the entire system is local, homes and businesses stay powered even if the main electrical grid goes down. Utilities like electricity, heating, and even water systems can all be run through one smart, connected platform.

Micro-grids can also connect to the larger grid when needed, but they don’t depend on it. This means more reliability, better efficiency, and a smaller environmental footprint.

Generate Heat and Power with Micro CHP Technology in Alberta

Looking for an efficient way to heat your home or business with natural gas while generating electricity? Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems are a smart, efficient, scaleable alternative energy solution in Alberta that uses the reliable natural gas grid.

These compact or larger units produce both heat and electricity from a single fuel source—typically natural gas in Alberta. That means you get more value from the energy you already use. CHP is ideal for homes, businesses and buildings with consistent heating needs and can significantly reduce or replace your reliance on the electrical grid.

It’s a practical solution for year-round comfort, energy savings, and increased resilience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Solar Modules (Panels)

How do Solar modules (panels) work?

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. When sunlight hits the PV cells, it generates direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which powers your home or business.

The average cost to install Solar panels on a single family home in Alberta ranges from $15,000 – $30,000 before grant funding incentives. This price will depend on the amount of Solar panels required, the layout, and any electrical upgrades necessary for installation.

The Canada Greener Home Loan are financial incentive programs for Canadian home owners pursuing energy efficient home upgrades like Solar panels. The programs can offer up to $50,000 as an interest free loans per home.

UPDATE: Grant program is closed and ends Dec 31, 2025 but the Loan program is still open with a June 2025 $600M funding top-up.

Clean Energy Improvement Program “CEIP” is a program administered by Canadian municipalities to provide financing for home energy efficiency upgrades. The program can provide up to $50,000 in financing at rates of between 2-6%* 

NOTE:  Canada Greener Home Grant program is closed to new participants at this time.

Applying for Solar-related grants and loans can be completed through the Greener Homes Loan portal or through your municipality’s CEIP page.

 

*Municipalities interest rates are subject to change for eligible homeowners. 

In Alberta, homeowners are permitted to install Solar modules capable of producing up to 110% of their annual energy usage. This usage can be determined from the properties power bills, or via a third party authorization with the wire provider to assess the home interval data.

It is best to get an Energy Audit done on your home to determine how much energy your home uses.  

Solar panels still produce electricity during cloudy or rainy days, but at reduced efficiency (typically 10–25% of peak output). Most systems are connected to the grid, so you still have power when Solar generation is low.

Solar modules typically last 25 to 30 years before their efficiency drops by about 20% from their original output. While performance gradually decreases over time, most panels continue to generate electricity well beyond their warranty period. In fact, many homeowners find their panels are still producing usable power for years after. When it’s time to upgrade, older panels can be relocated to a lake lot,  second property, or secondary reuse market offering continued value. And since energy needs often decrease after the children move out, many families find their original system still meets their reduced demand.

If relocation isn’t a fit, used panels can often be sold and replaced with newer models.
