Net Metering

If you have a generation facility (or facilities) using methane, wind, solar, biomass, hydropower, or geothermal resources at its energy source, this is the option for you!

You must be a smaller generator (25 kW or less).
You will be able to use the electrical output of your generation facility to supply all or a portion of your load (any excess is delivered to us).
If your generation exceeds your electric consumption for the month (this is known as Net Excess Generation), we pay you in the form of a credit on your bill!

Net Excess Generation (NEG): The amount you are paid for your NEG depends upon the type of generation you have.

You are paid one price for wind generation.
You are paid one price for photo-voltaic generation.
You are paid one price for baseload (such as methane fueled) generation.

Prices paid vary based upon summer (June 1 - September 30) and Winter (October 1 - May 31) seasons.

Rates shown above represent cost per kilowatt hour only and does not include other applicable fees. See Rate Plans for details regarding additional fees.
