We entered the scene to change the solar game and make it more accessible for all.
What Is Net Metering?
One of California’s most popular solar incentive programs is net metering. In essence, net metering allows solar energy system owners to feed any excess electricity they generate back into the grid. In return, they receive credits on their electric bills, effectively lowering the cost of their energy use. This process not only maximizes the use of solar energy during peak production times but also ensures that no excess electricity goes to waste.
For solar customers in Southern California, net metering presents a fantastic opportunity to capitalize on the region's plentiful sunshine. Given our area's high solar potential, homeowners and businesses can often generate more electricity than they consume, especially during sunny periods. By participating in net metering, you can offset the cost of the electricity you draw from the grid during less sunny times or at night, leading to significant savings on energy bills over time.
Furthermore, net metering contributes to a more sustainable and resilient energy grid by reducing the demand for fossil fuel-generated electricity. This helps lower greenhouse gas emissions and supports the state's goals for renewable energy use and sustainability. For Southern California residents, taking advantage of net metering means enjoying the financial benefits of solar power while playing a crucial role in the state’s transition towards a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.
California Solar Incentives for Residents
California provides a range of solar incentives to make solar energy more accessible:
- DAC-SASH Program: This program helps low-income customers in disadvantaged communities. Administered by GRID Alternatives, it offers $8.5 million in annual rebates for solar panel installation.
- LADWP Solar Programs: The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) offers three programs for homeowners: Solar Rooftops, Shared Solar, and Virtual Net Metering (VNEM). There are also commercial programs like the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) to support businesses.
- California Solar Mandate (2024): Starting in 2024, all new residential buildings (up to three stories) and new commercial properties must install solar panels, helping to ensure a sustainable future.
These programs make it more affordable for California residents to switch to solar energy by reducing the initial installation costs.
To get the most accurate and up-to-date information:
- Visit official websites: Check the California Energy Commission (CEC) and your local utility company websites (like LADWP) for the latest program details, eligibility requirements, and application processes.
- Consult with a solar installer: A qualified installer can assess your specific needs and help you determine which incentives and programs you may qualify for.
