Renewable Energy
Green Power ProgramLooking for an easy and affordable way to do more for the environment? At EPUD, we're excited to offer a 100% Green Power program. When you choose to buy cleaner electricity, you help reduce air pollution. An average customer purchasing cleaner electricity on our 100% plan for a year can avoid contributing almost 17,000 pounds of greenhouse gas (CO2) into the air. This is what a car produces in over 18,000 miles. ResidentialThe 100% Green Power Plan purchases green energy equal to ALL of your monthly usage. The cost is .8 cents (less than a penny) per kWh (in addition to your regular bill). That's approximately $10 more per month for an average household using 1,310 kWh monthly. Your cost may vary, depending on how much electricity you use. With the 50% Green Power Plan half the power you buy is generated from green resources. It costs an additional .8 cents (less than a penny) per kWh (in addition to your regular bill). That's approximately $5 more per month for an average household using 1,310 kWh monthly. Your cost may vary, depending on how much electricity you use.

Solar Electric ProgramEPUD encourages customer-owners that are interested in purchasing and installing a solar photovoltaic (PV) system to first consider as much energy efficiency as possible. Installing PV on an inefficient home or business may not be practical or a sound financial investment. As a customer-owner of EPUD, you can generate your own local and renewable energy using the power of the sun. EPUD offers cash incentives for qualifying grid-tied solar electric systems. It is important for you to obtain reliable information so that you can make a good decision about your new investment. EPUD maintains a list of local PV contractors that are licensed, insured and have some measure of experience working with utility incentive programs. CLICK HERE to see a list of EPUD-participating contractors for PV systems. All EPUD incentives require project pre-approval to ensure the availability of a customer incentive. In addition, both state and federal tax incentives may be available for your system. ResidentialFor qualified residential solar electric systems, EPUD offers up to $2 per Watt, CEC weighted AC capacity, with a maximum of $10,000 available. Until funding is depleted.
