Has anyone in the southwestern Ontario area had any luck with a solar panel company?

I'd like to get solar panels installed on the roof of my home in Burlington but really don't know where to start! I certainly can't afford to buy them outright, as I've heard nothing but $$$ when it comes to cost.

Any help or direction would be much appreciated.

agris co-op had a plan for 20000.00 $ thats the lowest i have heard of in ontario. most others cost 60000.00 after you get your goverment contract .. they are only giving them out to city homes now..i recall they are paying 52 cents per kwh for new contracts

First step is to see what your power requirement is then find out if your location has enough sun to support the power you will need year round, then start looking at systems and see if it will even be cost effective and if there may be other more cost effective ways to do it....if money is a factor.
