Imagine your roof tiles secretly moonlighting as power plants - that's exactly what the 2KW Tile Roof Mounting System by 9Sun Solar enables. Unlike traditional solar panels that sit awkwardly on rooftops like misplaced hat accessories, this system integrates cleaner than a chameleon at a crayon factory. With global renewable energy investments hitting $1.7 trillion in 2023, residential solar solutions are no longer just eco-friendly options but smart financial moves.
9Sun's system uses aircraft-grade aluminum alloy rails that snap onto roof hooks faster than Lego blocks. The magic lies in its:
When the Hernandez family in San Diego installed this system last fall, their energy bills pulled a Houdini - disappearing completely by month two. Their 1920s terracotta roof now generates enough juice to power:
Traditional solar setups turn roofs into Swiss cheese with mounting holes. 9Sun's solution? A zero-penetration design using:
Compared to Tesla's solar tiles that cost $21.85/sq.ft, 9Sun's system delivers:
With smart inverters that chat with your utility grid like old friends at a café, this system:
Architects are dubbing this the "stealth solar revolution". Historic districts from Charleston to Edinburgh now approve installations they'd previously reject faster than a toddler rejects broccoli. The secret sauce? A profile slimmer than a smartphone (just 3.2cm elevation).
As utility prices keep moonwalking upwards, this tile-mounted system isn't just an energy solution - it's a financial force field. And let's be real, who wouldn't want a roof that pays for itself while looking like it belongs in Architectural Digest?
Here's a closer look at rooftop solar in Canada and things to consider, including the up-front cost and a mix of policies and incentives that vary widely across the country..

This guide helps you decide between solar roof shingles and solar panels, compare the costs and specifically looks at installing shingles in Canada. [pdf]
Today, a good way of estimating the cost of installing solar panels on your roof is to assume roughly $3 per watt. With an average Canadian home requiring between 5 and 10 kW of solar panels, this would work out to $15,000 for a 5 kW system. It should be noted, however, that the price per watt is inversely proportional to the cost of the system.
Solar roofs have an identical install as a traditional solar panel. This provides cost savings measures and can utilize current racking tools readily available through most solar panel installers. Unlike Tesla’s Solar Shingles, these Solar Roof panels are easy to install and built to withstand Canadian climates.
But if you look closely at some roofs, you might find an intriguing lack of traditional panel design. With a Solar Roof, it becomes possible to produce clean, renewable energy without worrying about the aesthetic of traditional panels. These novel roofs can capture sunlight and convert them directly to electricity.
But incentives and policies that encourage or discourage solar vary widely across Canada. Ashley Reid put solar panels on her home in southern Ontario with the help of federal grant and loan programs. Based on her calculations, she says it makes financial sense to have the panels installed on her home. (Submitted by Ashley Reid)
It's a solution touted by Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, which started selling solar roof tiles in the U.S. in 2017. Since then, a range of made-in-Canada options for different parts of buildings have hit the market — and installations have sprung up across the country showcasing what's possible.
