4 Manitoba Solar Companies to Compare (2026)
A source-backed shortlist of Manitoba solar installers, with the utility and permit questions to resolve before choosing a proposal.
How this Manitoba shortlist works
This is an editorial starting point, not a promise of price, output or approval. We included companies with live published Manitoba service information and recommend comparing written scopes. Manitoba Hydro publishes separate solar-PV permit requirements and interconnection material; confirm the current process directly with Manitoba Hydro before committing, as requirements and links may change.

Manitoba solar projects are not interchangeable. A rooftop system in Winnipeg, an acreage array and a commercial installation may face different load, roof, electrical-service and scheduling questions. Start with a feasibility review, then compare like-for-like proposals.
1. Powertec Solar — Best starting point for multi-type projects
Powertec Solar publishes Manitoba residential, commercial, agricultural, community and off-grid solar information, and offers a feasibility-analysis request. Its broader service mix makes it a useful first conversation when a project may involve more than a standard home rooftop.
Why it ranks here: It publishes the widest range of Manitoba project categories in this comparison—residential, commercial, agricultural, community and off-grid—so one feasibility request can cover more than a single system type.
Best for: Owners whose project may span more than a standard home rooftop, or who are unsure which project category fits.
Trade-off: A broad service menu does not confirm capacity, pricing or timeline for your specific site; those still require a written scope.
Ask before booking: Which of your published project categories fits my property, and what does your feasibility-analysis request include for my address?
2. New Energy Alternatives — Residential, commercial and agricultural scope
Visit New Energy Alternatives →
New Energy Alternatives publishes Manitoba solar installation services across residential, commercial and agricultural project types. Ask for the proposed electrical scope and the assumptions behind the production estimate.
Why it ranks here: It publishes installation services across residential, commercial and agricultural project types, making it a relevant second quote for mixed-use or farm properties.
Best for: Homeowners, businesses and farm owners who want a comparison quote spanning more than one property type.
Trade-off: Its published pages do not detail the electrical scope or production assumptions, so those must be requested before comparing on price.
Ask before booking: What electrical scope is included, and what usage and shading assumptions sit behind your production estimate for my property?
3. K & C Solar — Installation, equipment and repair option
K & C Solar advertises Manitoba-wide equipment, installation and repair support. That combination may be useful for owners who want to discuss a new system alongside service needs for existing equipment.
Why it ranks here: It advertises equipment, installation and repair together, so a single conversation can cover both a new system and service for existing hardware.
Best for: Owners who want a new install and repair or maintenance for existing equipment handled by the same company.
Trade-off: Manitoba-wide coverage does not guarantee availability or scheduling for your specific location and timeline.
Ask before booking: Do you service my area for both new installation and repair, and what warranty and service terms apply to each?
4. Raysolar — Winnipeg-based solar option
Raysolar publishes solar offerings from Winnipeg. As with every quote, confirm the intended service area, electrical contractor, hardware, warranty terms and who submits utility documentation.
Why it ranks here: It is a Winnipeg-based option worth including as a local comparison quote alongside the broader providers above.
Best for: Winnipeg-area homeowners who want an additional local proposal to compare against a broader-scope installer.
Trade-off: Its published information is narrower than the multi-category providers, so service area, equipment and utility responsibilities need to be confirmed directly.
Ask before booking: What is your service area, which electrical contractor performs the work, and who submits the Manitoba Hydro documentation?
Questions to put in every proposal request
- What annual usage and shading assumptions were used?
- Which permits, plans, inspections and Manitoba Hydro steps are included?
- What work is excluded, including panel, roof or structural upgrades?
- What are the equipment, workmanship and monitoring terms?
