In Burlington, July is the sunniest month boasting 305 hours of sunshine. December has the lowest amount of sunshine, and the average annual amount of sun hours is 2115.
Installing residential rooftop solar panels in Burlington has a number of benefits. One of the biggest benefits and why many homeowners choose solar panels is the reduction in energy costs. Overall savings depend on the size and angle of rooftops, as well as the local electricity rates. Ontario uses a TOU plan, where customers are billed different amounts depending on when electricity is being used. Most Ontario homeowners who use solar panels may save up to 50% or more with solar panel installation. In Burlington, this can mean $1,000s of dollars saved over the next several years.
Solar panels in Burlington can also enhance your property value, and reduce overall carbon emissions (solar battery storage allows up to a full 100% carbon offset), and solar power is a reliable alternative source of energy.

I was surprised at how quickly CMI Solar was able to install my EV charger. It looks great on my garage wall and charges my Tesla very quickly. Now I never have to pay to charge my car again!
- Joel Smith
Great customer service and they kept their word!!! CMI Solar communicated where we were in the process of getting our panels, what step was next AND time frames in which we could expect things to happen. If we had any questions, they always promptly answered our calls. The guys who came to install the panels and came for inspection were very nice, respectful and prompt. I honestly couldn’t say anything bad about CMI Solar. We’re also happy that we chose to go solar with them.
