Get more from the sun
Without having to install solar panels
Simple Solar is available to all customers, whether you have renewable energy goals or cannot install rooftop solar. The Simple Solar program allows all customers the ability to support the growth of renewable energy while reducing your electric-based carbon footprint through Renewable Energy Credits. For an additional 1.25¢ per kWh on your bill, you can match either 50% or 100% of your monthly energy usage through these credits.
So what are Renewable Energy Credits (RECs)?
Glad you asked! RECs represent your investment in the development of widespread solar power production.
