Program Summary

In May of 2014, AB 7586 created a feed-in-tariff that would allow owners of solar photovotaic systems ranging between 10 kWh and 500 kWh to sell their energy for approximately 26 cents per kWh. Two provisions in the law specify that the tariffs must be less than the “avoided cost,” and if the “avoided cost” changes, the tariffs, (even those within an existing contract) may also change.A Feed-In Tariff system must be greater than 10kw and smaller than 500kw of installed capacity.
