Solar power just got more affordable thanks to a new initiative from Enmax.
The Generate Choice program will allow the average family to produce renewable energy for their own home and eventually cut the cost of their power bill.
Energy generated through solar panels on the roof of your home would directly provide your power.
However, if more electricity is created than you use, it will flow back onto the grid and you will be paid for the amont at the same rate you’re buying it.
Rob Harris with Enmax tells 660News, while it could eventually offset your energy costs entirely, it’s not going to make you a lot of money.
“This isn’t about getting rich off of this. It’s still a more expensive kind of power than the grid. This is cleaner power though,” says Harris.
The company is putting information and advisories in the bills it’s sending customers this month.
