Ashland Electric - Net Metering
Quick Summary
You can receive a $600 incentive from the City of Ashland for a qualifying solar electric system (at least 2,500 W with 75% total solar resource fraction). With net metering, excess electricity generated during sunny months carries over as kWh credits to offset winter usage, and any remaining credits after March 31 are paid at the utility's wholesale rate. To qualify, the system must be installed with city permits and you must own or be a tenant at the facility.

Program Summary
In 1996, Ashland adopted a net metering program that includes simple interconnection guidelines. Generation and consumption are netted monthly and any excess generation is rolled over to the next month as a kWh credit. Any net excess generation remaining after the March 31 billing cycle every year is paid out at the wholesale rate.
