Vermont solar incentives. Net metering rates. Utility rates. Solar panels in Vermont. Adjusters. Adders. Best solar companies in Vermont.
Feeling a little weary after those only 19 words? Some days we feel the same way when we get overloaded with industry speak. (And the above doesn’t include any of the industry acronyms, most of which are even more dull.)
Let’s weed out the noise for a couple of minutes and talk about something that does make sense. When you install solar at your Vermont home for your own use, the regulations allow you to have it set up in a way called “behind the meter.” Fortunately, this doesn’t mean you have to fit your AllEarth Solar Tracker under the bird’s nest between your electric meter and the clapboard. (Even our trained install crews aren’t that good.) What it does mean is that the generation your system produces cancels out a comparable amount of generation that you pay your utility for, even as utility rates continue to rise. (Green Mountain Power’s base residential rate has recently gone up over 5%, for example.) By owning a system well sized to meet the majority of your electric needs, you help protect yourself against those increases.
Another thing that makes sense? Having a solar system that generates enough to make “behind the meter” treatment really worthwhile. That’s where our dual-axis AllEarth Solar Tracker is likely your best bet. By following the sun, it generates around 40% more solar energy than fixed systems, and joins about 3000 other AllEarth trackers doing the same right here in Vermont.
