Canopy Solar is a locally owned business that has served the greater NE Ohio and Western PA region for over 16 years. We are a full-service solar electric and solar + storage installer company with NABCEP-certified installers.
Our region has seen a dramatic increase in the number of homes, businesses and farms that have embraced solar electric as well as solar + storage technology. These customers have evaluated the cost and benefits and made a decision to harvest energy from the sun right here in the Midwest where many folks don’t think it can be done.
Why do it? If you ask them you would probably hear a multitude of answers. One of our homeowners wanted reliable and affordable power for her rural home. A retail sales company wanted the reinvest the tax savings into his local community. Another business wanted predictable operating costs for the next thirty years. A farmer wanted reliable off-the-grid power.
