Farmers must act fast to save with solar
Farmers and the agriculture industry in California is facing a challenge to hold on to its rights to save money with solar.
Facilities with multiple electric meters will soon only be able to offset the usage from one of their meters, leaving millions of dollars in savings unfairly on the table.
At a time when energy costs are increasing more steeply than ever and the farming industry under growing pressure, the time to act is now.
Solar Energy for Farmers
Choosing solar energy is a strategic move for farmers and growers in California’s agriculture industry, offering significant benefits that impact both your bottom line and your operational sustainability.
But as of November 16, 2023, California’s farmers face a race against time to secure their fair share of savings from clean, affordable solar energy.
Virtual Net Energy Metering (VNEM) and Net Energy Metering Aggregation (NEMA) regulations will change to limit solar interconnection to one meter only, resulting in the loss of millions of dollars in savings for affected facilities.
California Utilities Attack Solar Again!
NEM 2.0 -> NEM 3.0: In 2022, CPUC allowed utilities to reduce the value of the energy solar customers feed back into the grid.
VNEM/NEMA: In 2023, CPUC has allowed utilities remove the ability to offset the energy from more than one meter, severely reducing the system sizes available to many businesses, with the agriculture industry among the most affected.
Our deadline to ensure we have enough time to conduct and submit the required preliminary engineering is January 5, 2024.
