Wolf River Electric offers solar roofing packages that coordinate roof replacement and solar installation under one team and one contract. Rolling both into solar financing can make the combined investment more accessible.

Yes. We install Level 2 EV charging stations for Ossian homes and businesses as a standalone service or bundled with a solar installation. Pairing EV charging with solar is one of the most efficient ways to power a vehicle, your panels generate the electricity, and you charge at effectively zero fuel cost after the system pays for itself.
What is a SPAN smart panel and is it available in Ossian?
A SPAN smart panel replaces your standard breaker box with an intelligent energy management system that gives you real-time control and visibility over every circuit in your home. Paired with solar and battery storage, SPAN lets Ossian homeowners decide which loads run on solar, which run on battery during outages, and how energy flows through the day. Wolf River Electric is a certified SPAN installer serving Winneshiek County.
