As Winter Energy Costs Climb, More Canadians Turn to Solar Generators for Home Power

By GlobeNewswire


OTTAWA, Ontario, Oct. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heating season is here, and Canadians are watching their energy bills closely. On Oct. 3, furnace oil in St. John's cost $2.16 per litre, almost a dollar more than on the same day in 2025. With global oil markets volatile, more households are looking for power they can make themselves. Jackery, a global leader in solar generators and home backup power, is helping Canadian homes do just that.

Not all backup power is created equal. This year, Frost & Sullivan named Jackery "The World's No.1 Solar Generator Brand, by Volume & Revenue" and "The Most Trusted Safety-First Solar Generator Brand." Safety matters most when backup power comes indoors to run an increasingly electrified home. For years, the go-to backup has been a gas generator. But gas generators are loud, need gasoline on hand and must run outside, away from windows and doors. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, one portable generator can produce as much carbon monoxide as hundreds of cars.

A solar powered generator, on the other hand, stores clean energy from the sun or the wall, then delivers it quietly indoors, with no fumes. When a winter storm knocks out the lights, it can keep the fridge cold, the Wi-Fi on and the phones charged. Some are modular and can even connect to a home's circuits through an automatic or manual transfer switch. And on sunny days, it charges itself back up for free.

That’s good news, because this winter could keep Canadians on their toes. The Farmers' Almanac is calling for a changeable season of sharp temperature swings, freezing rain and coastal storms, with parts of Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada most at risk of ice. Canadians know what that can mean. Last January, a single snowstorm knocked out power for 140,000 Nova Scotia Power customers, and thousands were still waiting more than a day later.

With a Jackery solar generator, the modern home can withstand an outage and keep its everyday conveniences and comforts.
