Solar Net Metering

SOLAR NET METERING - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Brief Outline of the Program:

The City of Swift Current’s Net Metering program provides City of Swift Current Light & Power customers with the opportunity to generate up to 100 kW (dc) of power, using an eligible energy resource, to offset their own power use.

Power you generate is used by your building first. Any extra power credits are carried forward to the next month and applied to that month’s power use.

A bi‐directional meter will be installed by the City of Swift Current Light & Power to meter the power coming from and going to the City grid. A solar production meter must be installed to measure the energy produced by the solar panel system, at the cost of the applicant.

Eligibility:

The program is open to all residents of The City of Swift Current including businesses.

Power must be solar generated by capturing sunlight and converting it to electricity through panels.

All generation equipment used must be certified for use in Canada. For more information on Canadian Electrical Codes, the Electrical Inspection Act and Saskatchewan interpretations visit tsask.ca/electrical.
