THE THINKING BEHIND NORTAVEX
A building-first approach
to better energy.
Engineering. Energy. Infrastructure.
Nortavex brings engineering, energy, and infrastructure together for residential and commercial solar projects across Canada. Solar is part of a larger building story: the roof, structure, electrical capacity, and patterns of energy use all need to work together.
From engineering and design through permits, installation, battery storage, and maintenance, we shape each project around the building and the people it serves. We begin with your goals, define the scope, and make the next steps clear.
Meet the services behind your systemOUR RESIDENTIAL FOCUS
More homes under one roof.
More reason to think solar.
Multifamily and multiplex buildings are a particular focus of our work. We help owners and developers consider solar as part of a thoughtful, long-term plan for their property.
A shared roof is an opportunity to plan energy at the scale of the building. Solar can support common-area electricity needs and form part of a wider strategy for the property. Considering it during a new development or major renovation brings roof layout, electrical infrastructure, and future storage into the same conversation.
Make the roof part of the plan
Consider panel layout, access, shading, roof condition, and structural requirements alongside the architecture.
Connect the energy needs
Review common-area loads, metering arrangements, electrical capacity, and how the building is used.
Think beyond installation
Coordinate permits, delivery, maintenance access, and future upgrades around your ownership plans.
02 / THE THINKING BEHIND THE ENERGY
Good engineering.
Every step of the way.
A successful solar project starts long before the first panel. Our approach connects the details, from your initial idea to a considered plan for delivery.
Understand your building
Start with your goals, energy use, roof, and site conditions to understand what’s possible.
Engineer the right solution
Consider system layout, electrical integration, structural requirements, and the approval pathway.
Plan for lasting performance
Bring design and installation planning together with a clear view of operation and maintenance.

YOUR SOLAR STARTING POINTA little space.
A little space.
A lot of potential.
20 m²1,000 m²
Illustrative only. Assumes 70% usable roof area, 2 m² per panel, and 400 W panels. Actual capacity depends on roof geometry, shading, structural capacity, setbacks, and equipment.

Good questions.
Clear answers.
Getting started with solar should feel straightforward.
Is my building suitable for solar?+
Roof orientation, shade, available area, roof condition, and structural capacity all matter. A site and energy assessment is the next step toward understanding suitability.
Do you work with homes and commercial buildings?+
Nortavex focuses on solar energy solutions for both residential and commercial buildings. Tell us about your property and project goals to explore the right approach.
What does the project process involve?+
A typical project moves through discovery, site assessment, system design, required approvals, installation, and commissioning. The scope and delivery responsibilities are agreed for each project.
Can I add battery storage?+
Battery compatibility depends on your system design, inverter, electrical infrastructure, and intended use. Include storage or backup power in your enquiry so it can be considered during planning.
How much will a solar system cost?+
System size, building conditions, equipment, electrical work, and local approval requirements affect cost. A project assessment is needed before a meaningful quote or savings estimate can be provided.
