Already answered in follow-up thread. Two major incentive systems, #netmetering for residential solar (and small businesses), and #SDE subsidy scheme for bigger projects > 15 kWp. Up till now largest, 144 MWp Dorhout Mees #solarpark

Because of an extremely interesting incentive regime, in place since July 2004 (!) called #netmetering. Since electricity price is so intensively taxed (energy tax plus VAT, now 9.2 €ct/kWh, VAT is 21% extra), very lucrative to install solar for residential systems
Distributed solar grows rapidly, but the power sector resists, prioritising revenue over efficiency and consumer choice.

Like all provinces, #Ontario has net-metering. You get credited at a 1:1 ratio, letting homeowners export excess solar power to the grid and receive credits on their electricity. Credits can carry forward to 12 months, so over sizing is good to an extent.

From California to Puerto Rico, cutting solar export credits slowed adoption—will Pakistan repeat the same mistake?

When citizens turned to the sun for survival, the regulator turned away. Weakening rooftop solar is not reform—it is a retreat from economic strength, climate credibility, and public trust.

#SaskPower #NetMetering Program lets you install #solar (up to 100kW) and get credits on your bill for electricity you produce-reducing your power costs over time. This is great for #farmers, who are trying to feed #Canadians, to save money and invest in their #farm. #SaskatchewanSolar #CleanEnergy
A new bill in New Hampshire aims to clarify the rules for energy storage paired with net metering, sparking a heated debate over grid-charging and its implications for renewable energy customers.

A major win for #solar in #PuertoRico! 🇵🇷
#NetMetering is officially staying put in the current rate case!
We hired the experts, filed the testimony, and together we successfully shined a spotlight on the threat.

Timing matters:
These rebates started rolling out mid-2024 and have limited funding, so filing early and getting sized before you order equipment helps ensure you don't miss out.

Lower upfront costs:
By combining BC Hydro rebates + PST exemption + federal support + net-metering credits, BC Homeowners reduce their solar projects by 20-30% or more!!!

Battery rebates still strong:
In addition to solar rebates, you can also get up to $5000 back for battery storage - including more if you enroll in demand-management programs like Peak Saver.

Net-Metering = credits on your bill!
Both #BCHydro and #FortisBC let you get credits for extra electricity your solar system sends back to the grid - offsetting power you buy when the sun isnt shining.

Going fast, but still a long way to go in view of current problems. I see a lot of them coming, but only in the project market and congestion areas. No incentive yet from state for residential solar #BESS, #netmetering will be abolished Jan. 1, 2027, so maybe ...
Will Pakistan abolish net metering?
Solar energy expert Moin Fudda talks about what net metering is and why the government wants to abolish it. He also believes Pakistan should manufacture solar panels and batteries locally, and promote the sale of carbon emissions. #NetMetering #Pakistan…
Decentralised solar can empower rural households, but short-term policy changes risk undermining Pakistan’s clean energy potential.

NWT have a vredit system with their Net-Metering program. Meaning you overproduce energy in the summer, which they credit you on, so you dont have to worry and spend in the winter.

Well, any household that doesn't have a smart (digital) meter can use a #Balkonkraftwerk without the utility ever realising.
With old fashioned mechanical spinning meters (Germany still has many of those..), the utility only sees that total power usage has dropped, over a year.
