Understanding Net Metering in Texas

Net metering Texas allows homeowners to earn credits for excess solar energy sent back to the grid. However, Texas does not have a statewide net metering policy. Instead, credits and compensation vary by utility company and retail electric provider (REP).

How Net Metering Works in Deregulated Markets

In most of Texas’s deregulated electricity markets, customers can choose an REP that offers solar buyback or net metering-like programs. These programs allow you to offset energy costs based on the solar energy you generate. Some REPs offer 1:1 credit rates, while others offer lower compensation.
