AZ Net Metering
AI summary · 7/12/2026

If you install solar, wind, or geothermal electric systems at your SRP-served home, you can choose from three billing plans for the electricity you generate: Schedule E-13, E-16, or E-27. Two of these plans (E-13 and E-16) net your production and consumption instantly and credit exported energy at 3.45 cents per kWh, while E-27 nets monthly; the plans differ in whether they include a demand charge and in their energy rates. Review SRP's rate schedules to pick the option that best fits your usage before enrolling.

SRP customers with on-site generation (solar PV, wind, or geothermal electric) can enroll in one of three price plans, so you can help clients understand the tradeoffs: E-13 has no demand charge but higher energy charges, while E-16 and E-27 include seasonally varying demand charges with lower energy rates. Exports on E-13 and E-16 are credited at 3.45 cents per kWh with instantaneous netting, whereas E-27 nets monthly. Direct customers to SRP's website and rate schedules for full details before finalizing system design and plan selection.

This SRP net metering offering serves residential, multifamily residential, and low-income residential customers generating electricity on-site from solar PV, wind, or geothermal electric technologies. It operates through three rate structures: E-13 (instantaneous netting, 3.45 cents/kWh export credit, no demand charge, higher energy charges), E-16 (instantaneous netting, 3.45 cents/kWh export credit, seasonal demand charge, lower energy rates), and E-27 (monthly netting with a demand charge that varies by season and demand size). Specific funding mechanics beyond the export credit rates are not detailed in the DSIRE record; consult SRP's rate schedules for additional program parameters.

Program summary

Residential customers that generate part of their electricity requirements on-site have three billing options:

Schedule E-13 features instantaneous netting of production and consumption, with exports credited at a rate of 3.45 cents per kWh. Unlike the other two schedules, E-13 does not include a demand charge, but it has significantly higher energy charges.

Schedule E-16 features instantaneous netting of production and consumption, with exports credited at a rate of 3.45 cents per kWh. It also includes a demand charge, which varies seasonally, and energy rates that are lower than those associated with Schedule E-13.

Schedule E-27 nets production and consumption on a monthly basis. It also includes a demand charge, which varies by the season and size of demand.

See SRP's website and the rate schedule for more details.
