What To Know Before You Go Solar
Net Metering
Lower Valley Energy has been working with Net Metered members for over 25 years – for onsite renewable generation such as Solar for systems sized 25 KW or smaller. Larger systems would require special board approval. Please see LVE’s “Net Metering Information & Specifications”. Our metering supervisor will need to approve the one-line diagram prior to installation.
LVE requires the “Net Metering Agreement” as well. An Island Test will be performed prior to any changes to be made in billing. Once signed off on by LVE, the bill and billing cycle will be switched to a net metering account. Lower Valley Energy recommends you work with a certified solar installer. Please contact LVE with any questions or concerns.
