Clean Energy Rebates in Alberta

Own Your Power With CEIP and Infinity Solar Group

Clean energy rebates in Alberta are one of the smartest ways to cut upgrade costs, lower your utility bills, and boost property value—without draining your savings account.

From solar panels to insulation and high-efficiency equipment, there are programs designed to help Albertans use less energy, save more money, and reduce emissions.

Infinity Solar Group is here to decode the acronyms, do the math, and guide you through the paperwork so you can focus on what matters: owning your power, not renting it from the utility.

Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP)

The Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) is Alberta’s property-tax–based financing tool that helps residential and commercial property owners complete solar and energy-efficiency upgrades with minimal upfront cost.With CEIP, eligible properties can finance up to 100% of approved project costs, including:

Our team delivers full service and support for solar panel installation Edmonton for homes, businesses, and community properties. You get a partner who understands Edmonton’s energy costs and the local incentives available to you.

  • Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems
  • Insulation and air sealing
  • High-performance windows and doors
  • Heating and cooling upgrades

Repayment happens through a dedicated line on your property tax bill over a long term (often up to 20–25 years, depending on the municipality). That means:

  • Upgrades can often be cash-flow friendly from day one
  • The repayment stays with the property, not the owner
  • Future buyers benefit from efficiency and keep paying off the upgrades

Many municipalities layer in extra CEIP rebates for solar, which can reduce the total amount financed and improve your return on investment even further. All work must meet program requirements and be completed by CEIP-approved contractors (that’s Infinity Solar Group) to keep everything compliant and high quality.

Want the simple version?
You upgrade your building. CEIP spreads the cost out over time on your tax bill. The building gets more efficient; the planet and your wallet both breathe easier.

Contact Infinity Solar today to see how CEIP can help you own your power instead of just paying for it.

The final product, including the phone app and website to monitor electricity generation by individual panels in real time is outstanding. We’d highly recommend Infinity Solar!

Chris and Wendy L.

I get to offset my energy bill and take advantage of all the sunshine Kimberley gets! Great system!

Shane T.

Best investment I ever made especially now with the government Green Energy Grant – the Federal government reimbursed me $5,600. This local company does excellent work and I highly recommend them!

Bob W.

Infinity Solar gave me a thorough proposal—an aerial photo of our buildings showing the panels, plus clear predictions for power generation, lower electric bills, and payback. At 74, I wondered how long I’d benefit, but our passion for saving the environment—and doing our part—convinced me. We all need to do our part in order to prevent the devastating scientific predictions ahead. I love powering our electric car, power tools, and new heat pump with the sun, and the $5k rebate helped seal the deal! The staff were skilled, professional, and friendly; installation was quick, and they handled the permits and grant. If you’re thinking of getting power from the sun, I highly recommend Infinity Solar.

Mike Z.

This is a big investment and we felt that our questions were answered, even if we ended up asking them twice, and that our emails were responded to promptly. Overall 5 out of 5 stars!

Heather M.

Everyone at Infinity Solar was easy to understand and more than willing to help, even when we called the wrong person. We are very satisfied with the installation and the company.

Everything was really great! From the initial quotes, to answering all of our questions, to the final install. We felt taken care of and secure in our decision to use your company.
