Thinking about switching to solar energy for your home? Now is the perfect time for PECO residential customers to make the move, thanks to a new $500 rebate for solar installations.
The solar energy produced will flow into your home and any extra electricity will flow out onto the electricity grid. PECO will credit your bill for this excess production, through a process known as "net metering."
What makes this agreement unique is that PECO will pay the solar provider for the electricity as well as for providing the capacity — meaning the provider gets paid to guarantee 25 MW of solar will be available to PECO.
Will PECO Pay You For Energy You Generate And Do Not Use? Yes, if you install a grid-tied solar system interconnected to PECO''s transmission and electric distribution system according to PECO''s instructions and approval.
At the end of the net metering year (May 31), you will receive a credit for any existing kilowatt-hours produced in excess of the kilowatt-hours received from PECO.
Solar incentives in Pennsylvania include tax credits, SRECs, and net metering. Many homeowners who have gone solar have saved more money with these incentives.
