Production Incentive for Photovoltaic Solar Arrays

Austin Public Utility’s Solar Choice program encourages customers to install photovoltaic solar arrays and connect them to their utilities’ electrical distribution system by offering an incentive payment based on the system’s production on a $/kWh basis. Maximum incentive is $1.00/kWh and the maximum generation project that may be interconnected with the distribution system is 40 kW. Solar Choice is not for customers who want to install renewable energy sources for back-up power generation at their home or business.
