What your installer should be telling you

Ask which netting arrangement this utility applies, and what the current avoided fuel cost figure is.

Evergy MO is investor owned, so Mo. Rev. Stat. § 386.890, Net Metering and Easy Connection Act applies and these terms are set by the state rather than by a board that can revise them. That is the strongest position a homeowner can be in on net metering.

Applying to Evergy MO

What Evergy MO itself requires, as distinct from what the state rule requires. Read from its own published guidelines on the date shown.

The statute defines what you are paid, in its own words
Avoided fuel cost means the incremental costs to the utility of electric energy it would generate itself or purchase from another source. It is the floor the statute sets, not a ceiling on what a utility may offer.
Credits expire after twelve months
A surplus banked over the summer must be used within the year. There is no payout at the end, so the credit simply lapses.
The two large utilities implement it differently
Evergy allows one-for-one netting during the billing cycle. Ameren Missouri ties availability to eligible rate structures. Ask which arrangement applies to you before accepting a savings model.
Evergy’s annual settlement is at avoided cost
Reported in the range of 2.5 to 3.5 cents per kWh. Confirm the current figure in writing.
100 kW is the eligibility ceiling
Far above what a house needs, so the statute is not what limits your system. The twelve month credit clock is.

Installers serving Evergy MO customers

Pick one. Only the company you choose receives your details, and only that company calls you.

These are real companies operating in Evergy MO territory, ordered by reviews, years trading and BBB grade. None of them pays us for placement. Pick the one you want and we will call you to arrange it.

Ordering combines three things we read from primary sources: Google review count and rating, years trading taken from the company’s Better Business Bureau profile rather than its own marketing, and its BBB letter grade. BBB accreditation is shown but never scored, because it is a paid membership rather than a mark of quality.

Check any contractor license yourself at the state register. Do that before you sign anything, with any company, including ours.
