Solar Incentives

Solar panels are a lucrative investment that saves so much money, it pays for itself. They also increase your energy security by reducing your reliance on the electric grid and giving you more control over your electricity supply. 

The upfront cost of a home solar installation can be an obstacle, but there are incentives available to reduce your installation costs and help you save more money with solar panels! Sustainergy Cooperative is a highly experienced local solar company serving the Greater Cincinnati & Columbus metropolitan areas, and we can help you maximize your savings with solar incentives. 

Net Metering 

Net metering is a billing system that allows you to trade electricity with your utility. Net metering policies vary by state and utility company. In Ohio, investor-owned utilities are required to offer net metering. In Kentucky, all investor-owned utilities and rural electric cooperatives except TVA utilities are required to offer net metering. 

How Net Metering Works 

When your solar panels produce more electricity than you can use, the excess will be automatically fed into the electric grid, spinning your meter backward. You’ll receive a credit for the electricity you send to the grid, which can be used to buy electricity from the grid when your solar panels are not producing enough electricity. 

Net metering policies vary by state and utility company. Net metering is available in our service area in both Ohio and Kentucky.
