Coverage
Live in 50 states and Washington DC.
We only open a state once we have read the actual net metering rules for every utility in it, from the tariff or the commission order rather than from a comparison site. Where we have licensed installers on the ground the page says so, and where we do not it says that too.
Florida
15 utilities on the grid, plus every co-op and municipal in the state.
Alabama
No state rule, no net metering, and $5.41 a month for every kW of panels.
Alaska
Avoided cost, about a third of retail, under a program cap.
Arizona
APS, SRP and Tucson Electric, and the export rate that has fallen every year since 2017.
Arkansas
Avoided cost since Act 278, unless you got in before October 2024.
California
Net billing since 2023, and the state where a battery is the whole argument.
Colorado
Retail rate credit, for a system sized up to 200% of your expected usage.
Connecticut
Two tariffs, one choice, twenty years. Pick the tariff before the system.
Delaware
Full retail credits that, under a 2025 law, no longer expire each year.
District of Columbia
Full retail to your annual use, and the surplus is paid, not forfeited.
Georgia
Georgia Power plus the largest cooperatives, and the closed program nobody tells you about.
Hawaii
Closed since 2015, and the most expensive power in America makes storage obvious.
Idaho
No state rule, and a 31% cut at the largest utility in 2024.
Illinois
Supply-rate credit since 2025, and a rebate that can cost you the old rate.
Indiana
Wholesale plus 25%, which works out at roughly a quarter of what you pay.
Iowa
Retail-rate export credit, locked for twenty years; what is unused each year is forfeited.
Kansas
A wholesale credit for exports, and a size rule set by your own bills since 2026.
Kentucky
A commission-set rate, a 1% switch that can be thrown once, and 25-year grandfathering that survives a house sale.
Louisiana
Under four cents, netted instantaneously, since a 2019 Commission vote.
Maine
One for one at the full retail rate: about 25 cents at CMP, 30 at Versant.
Maryland
Full retail today, closing at a cap or a date, whichever arrives first.
Massachusetts
Surplus at 84 to 90% of retail up to 25 kW, and 60% of that above it.
Michigan
Inflow-outflow, not net metering: what you use as it is made is worth most.
Minnesota
Surplus paid at the average retail energy rate under 40 kW; co-op credits end with the year.
Mississippi
Entergy and Mississippi Power, and the adder the rule itself puts a clock on.
Missouri
Up to 100 kW, with credits that expire at twelve months rather than pay out.
Montana
One for one up to 50 kW, and a settle-up month you get to choose.
Nebraska
Every utility publicly owned; surplus up to 25 kW paid at each one’s own rate, and paid out yearly.
Nevada
Full retail to your own usage, 75% above it, and a north-south split on netting.
New Hampshire
A formula you can check against your own bill, locked until 2041.
New Jersey
One for one at retail, and an annual true up at wholesale.
New Mexico
Kilowatt hour credits that never expire at PNM, and a monthly buy rate at El Paso Electric.
New York
Full retail for twenty years, minus a monthly fee per kilowatt installed.
North Carolina
Two Duke utilities, three riders, and which one you are sold decides the return.
North Dakota
Required of investor owned utilities only; optional at the co-ops.
Ohio
A bill credit only, which the rule allows to expire if you never use it.
Oklahoma
Required up to 300 kW, paid at avoided cost, against very cheap retail power.
Oregon
One for one, and the March leftover is donated rather than paid.
Pennsylvania
Retail rate monthly including distribution, price-to-compare on 31 May.
Rhode Island
About 82% of retail up to your use, or a fixed 28.65 to 31.55 cents on everything you generate.
South Carolina
Duke and Dominion, and a $30 versus $13.50 minimum bill on the same rooftop.
South Dakota
No state policy, by decision. The interconnection agreement is the only rule.
Tennessee
No state rule and no default credit. Your local power company is the whole question.
Texas
No state rule. Your wires company pays nothing and you pick the retailer that does.
Utah
Net billing at about four cents, and a 2036 expiry on the good old arrangement.
Vermont
A blended state rate, then adjusters worth six cents either way.
Virginia
Net metering by statute, a 6% program cap, and a rewrite landing on 1 January 2027.
Washington
One for one, and any balance left on 31 March goes to the utility.
West Virginia
Retail netting has closed at all three utilities; new systems sell exports at 9 to 12 cents.
Wisconsin
One answer per utility, and the widest spread of any state we cover.
Wyoming
Required up to 25 kW per system, with no cap on how many there can be.
