About
Energon helps Alberta homeowners make smarter decisions about their electricity plans
In Alberta's deregulated electricity market, dozens of retailer plans exist, including fixed rates, floating rates, and specialized solar export programs. Choosing the wrong plan can quietly add hundreds of dollars to a household's annual energy costs. We provide independent tools and analysis to help homeowners compare electricity plans, understand seasonal pricing strategies, and ensure their home is on the most cost-effective rate.
For homes with rooftop solar, the impact can be even greater. Export rates and seasonal switching strategies can significantly influence the financial return on a solar investment. Many solar homeowners remain on standard electricity plans without realizing that specialized solar rate programs may offer substantially higher compensation for the energy they export to the grid.
Energon helps bridge that gap.
Our platform offers several tools and services designed to help homeowners optimize their electricity bills:
- Bill Optimization Service – We review your current plan, compare retailer options, and help manage the switching process if a better structure exists.
- Solar Rate Comparison Calculator – Model how solar export rates and seasonal switching strategies affect your annual electricity costs.
- Solar Payback Calculator – Estimate payback period, average ROI per year, and lifetime return using your system cost, seasonal production, and electricity rates.
- Live Solar Dashboard – Monitor a real Alberta solar home in real time to see production, usage, and grid exports throughout the year.
- Best Solar Electricity Plans – Compare Alberta's top High/Low solar rate plans ranked by estimated savings.
- How to set up electricity and gas in a new home – Alberta move-in checklist for retailers, gas, and municipal utilities.
We also work with trusted Alberta electricity retailers like Shared Value Energy to minimize admin fees and ensure the best value for each kWh you buy and sell from the grid.
Our goal is simple: help Alberta homeowners capture the full value of the electricity they produce and consume.
