I wondered when this might appear but I guess it took about 5-6 months to update their website.
I love the fact that you are taking a picture of it taking a picture of you.

What? Like you have never done that before? lolI love the fact that you are taking a picture of it taking a picture of you.
The limit is the amount you use. They won't let you size your array to produce more electricity than you expect to consume.When I talked to SkyFire they said that the Province restricts how much solar you can put on your rooftop. Do you know what the rules are about that?
Your system is the same size as mine. It would be interesting to compare year-over-year numbers too see how much difference there is between us. I suspect you get more sun annually and I have a few minor shading problems, but would be interesting all the same. Have you connected yourself to pvoutput.org? (I think maybe you mentioned it before but I can't recall!)So happy to see some more solar installations going in Calgary! Congrats AC1K on your new system. It definitely feels good to be driving on sunshine. I was looking for pictures of my own rooftop on my computer, but I found out they are on Skyfire Energy's website here:
5.2kW Grid Tied Solar Power System; Calgary, Alberta SkyFire Energy - Calgary, Edmonton & Western Canada Solar Power Systems and Solar Panels
As you can see I went with panels that had black frames for "the look". Completely superfluous but I figure the neighbours would be appreciative . Wish I had the Solaredge inverter though. Mine is an older model Sunnyboy. Works fine and has an "emergency power outage" outlet at least.
I'm in EV heaven in the San Francisco area. All the models I've only read about and never seen before:Lon12 - King of road trips!!

I spoke to the fellow at the Calgary Tesla store just yesterday. I said the same thing. "Oh, I'll just stay home instead of lining up". He still said I get an advantage over the non-Tesla owners... but that I would still be lining up in the owners-line. Coming from Edmonton, I understand your reason for staying home. But, the wife wants this Model 3 like yesterday, so I'm going to try and get in the front of the "owners line".
I'm hoping to line up at the store in the "owners line" with you. Do you know what Tesla means by "Region"? Is it Alberta or the whole time zone?
Agree..If you look at the spread sheet only five are going to line up..even if you expect 10 times that it's only 50/I am really unsure of how things are going to work... and thinking maybe only a small lineup of 20 or so people will be in Calgary...
...are you taking a picture of the Google Car taking a picture of you? That's awesome!Google was in St. Albert, AB in September, 2015

Two of my coworkers own Leafs, one bought new in Edmonton, the other bought a used one in BC. If you're seriously considering a Leaf let me know and I can put you in touch with them.I convinced my family to test drive a Leaf. (As long as you don't go expecting a Tesla it's great! ) Some Nissan dealerships in Edmonton don't have them available, so if you ever want to drive one call first to make sure. The sales rep guy wanted to sell us a Versa Note since they didn't have Leafs at the first place we went to, but I said it's not the same ... not electric.
