Solar Ninjas: the passion of a company that actually cares,
backed by decades of trades experience.
The electric vehicle revolution is here, and charging infrastructure is no longer optional—it’s essential. Did you know that vehicle charging capability is a PRIMARY factor when EV owners decide where to shop, dine, stay, and do business? If your property doesn’t offer charging, you’re potentially losing customers and limiting your appeal to tenants, employees, and visitors.
Whether you’re an EV owner looking to install a home charging station or a business owner wanting to attract the growing population of electric vehicle drivers, we provide complete turnkey charging solutions designed for Alberta’s unique requirements.
Do you own a Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) or an all-electric vehicle? Planning to purchase one soon? Installing a Level 2 home charging station transforms your EV ownership experience, providing fast, convenient charging overnight so you wake up to a fully charged vehicle every morning.
Home charging benefits:
We assess your specific needs, electrical capacity, and optimal installation location to design a charging solution that works seamlessly with your home’s electrical system and your vehicle’s requirements.
For businesses, EV charging stations are more than amenities—they’re competitive advantages. Shopping centers, hotels, restaurants, office buildings, apartment complexes, and retail locations with charging capabilities attract EV drivers who spend more time (and money) at locations where they can charge.

From single residential chargers to comprehensive commercial parking lot installations—we provide the expertise, certification, and support to make EV charging simple, reliable, and hassle-free.
Most residential panel upgrades take 1-2 days, including inspection. The timeline depends on your home’s wiring condition, whether the service entrance needs upgrading, and permit processing time. We coordinate with EPCOR (or your utility) for temporary disconnection if needed, minimize downtime, and ensure the work passes inspection on the first attempt. Commercial projects vary based on size and complexity—contact us for a detailed timeline.
Absolutely. SolarNinjas is a licensed electrical contractor serving residential, commercial, and farm properties across Edmonton and surrounding areas. Our services include panel upgrades, EV charger installation, electrical infrastructure for solar systems, troubleshooting and repairs, code compliance work, and new construction electrical. We’re not a marketing company with subcontractors—you work directly with our master electricians from estimate to completion.
Signs you need a panel upgrade include: frequent breaker trips, flickering lights when appliances run, burning smells near the panel, a panel over 25 years old, rust or corrosion on the panel, buzzing sounds, or planning to add solar panels or EV charging. Most older homes have 100-amp panels, but modern homes with solar, EVs, and multiple appliances need 200-amp service. Our electricians provide free assessments to determine if an upgrade is necessary.
Yes. Alberta law requires all electrical work to be performed by licensed electricians and inspected by a certified electrical inspector. DIY electrical work is illegal and dangerous—it can void your insurance, create fire hazards, and result in costly fines. SolarNinjas employs licensed master electricians who ensure all work meets Alberta Safety Codes and passes inspection the first time.
Automobile manufacturers put a charger in every car. What we do is install your supply equipment to feed that charger. It’s a matter of quality and time.
The charging cable that comes with your car (if provided) is usually a simple wall plug type that can take up to 24 hours (several days in the case of premium vehicles) to charge.
We can install a system that will charge your car within as little as 4 hours. How big or how expensive and the type your choose will all depend on the vehicle you own (or plan to own) and how fast you’d like to be able to charge up.
Many affordable options exist that are attractive, powerful, and will handle your needs for the life of your vehicle and then some.
With a long history of contracting in the residential marketplace and many forms of heavier construction spanning several decades, we feel the time is right to focus on renewable energy and modern technology in the electrical field.
SolarNinjas is dedicated to providing not only great gear but also education and awareness so that the customer is fully able to appreciate what they are getting and the service we provide. We want you to really KNOW, not just trust us. We will teach you the secrets of photon ninjutsu…if desired.
