Net metering allows you to send the excess energy from your panels to the local grid in exchange for credits on your monthly electric bills.

Solar*Rewards® is your opportunity to have solar for your home or business. It's an incentivized program, so annual payments are made to the owner of the solar system in exchange for Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) for the energy produced by the solar system.

All solar customers receive net energy metering benefits. When the system produces more solar energy than is needed, the extra energy is added to our grid and you may receive a credit on your monthly bill.

Dakota Electric Association® offers a one-time payment of $500 per premise upon the installation and commission of your solar photovoltaic (PV) array

When your system produces more energy than your house needs, you will earn a credit on your bill. Under net metering, you receive an average retail rate for all excess energy delivered into the grid.
