Net Metering
With net metering technology, you can offset all or part of your electricity requirements.
Net metering measures the difference between the electricity you buy from us and the energy you generate using your own solar or wind equipment. Many small generating systems are easily available and benefit the environment.
With net metering, you get the full value of the electricity you generate. Basically, you will be charged for the amount of energy that you purchase from us minus the cost of the energy that you provide to us.
If you decide to participate, you will need to meet all applicable codes and standards, obtain a government approved electric inspection and sign a net metering agreement before we install the new meter.
