Our Story
How it all started.
Rooted in Sustainability
Born and raised in Alberta, Curtis Craig, P.Eng, ME, and President of Inferno Solar, was introduced to sustainability at an early age. Working on his grandparent’s farm throughout his youth, Curtis learned first-hand about wildlife habitat preservation and responsible land management practices from his grandfather, a recognized Habitat Steward who dedicated and maintained over 50 acres of land bordering the Red Deer River for wildlife habitat conservation.
Experienced in Electrical Engineering
As Curtis grew older, he took after his father and began his career as an electrician, eventually progressing to Master Electrician and Professional Electrical Engineer. Within this field, Curtis’ work experiences ranged from installing solar panels on industrial pipeline instrumentation buildings in some of the most remote areas of Alberta, to designing solar solutions for schools and other major city infrastructure projects throughout the province.
Committed to Advancing Western Canada’s Energy Sector
These combined experiences, values, and passions are what motivated Curtis to launch Inferno Solar, which has since grown to a specialized team of solar industry leaders who are committed to advancing Western Canada’s energy sector with innovative and sustainable solar resources.
OUR MISSION
Offering energy solutions that reduce costs and emissions.
To provide solutions – not problems.
To demonstrate that solar electricity can compete with grid electricity on cost basis, while lowering exposure to market volatility.
To communicate to investors that customers and prospective employees put increased value in businesses that take carbon emissions and climate change seriously.
To provide uncompromising quality and excellent service to our partners and their customers, that we will continue to grow and be successful in our mission.
Great Results
The energy output of solar panels impacted by snow was measured by a study at NAIT as being less than 5% per year.
Great Results
Solar panels are designed to withstand 1-inch diameter hail, falling at speeds up to 83km/h.

Agriculture Solar Panel Systems
Agriculture solar systems can produce up to 100% of your annual electricity needs
A growing number of farmers are looking to solar to help with daily operations and control of electricity costs. Agriculture solar systems can produce anywhere from 20-100% of your annual electricity needs to run your farm.
Solar panels are often a cheaper option than running new power lines to provide power in remote parts of the farm. And because they have zero moving parts and are virtually maintenance free, they are more cost efficient than generators that require fuel and upkeep.
