You will want to contact whatever companies are installing solar in your area. Because this is a commercial venture, it may be that at present it's not economically feasible for you to do solar. About 8 years ago I had a lovely long conversation with a man representing a solar company, and long story short, at the time because my monthly electric bill was about $50/month, solar made no sense for me. Because the solar technology has gotten a great deal more efficient, it now makes sense.
Several things to be aware of. The cost of the solar panels might be more than is financially feasible. I actually wound up re-financing my home to roll over the cost of the solar panels, and because interest rates had dropped since I got my mortgage some ten years ago, my monthly payment is barely above what it was, and I am not adding any time to my mortgage.
Even though you live in a place with snow and (more importantly) cloud overcast, solar may still make a lot of sense. Modern solar panels still generate electricity even when the sun is behind clouds. I suspect that the panels I have here in NM are terrific with full sun, a bit less so with overcase. We get very little cloud cover, and when I look at the "dashboard" to my panels, the days where the clouds roll in are very noticeable.
There's also another issue, which is whether or not you can sell your excess electricity back to your provider. Here, where I live, I can do that. I will probably in the long run make a small amount of money. I can tell you this: The first month of partial solar, starting July 7, 2019, my electric bill went from $45.00 to $18.00. I expect that this month it will be even less.
Do be aware that even if you can't sell excess electricity back to your power company, this year there are some very good tax incentives to go solar.
