What is the Distributed Energy Resource Program?
The Distributed Energy Resource Program enables you to produce your own electricity, reducing your reliance on the grid and ensuring greener energy for your home or business. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) provide generation, storage and flexible solutions for all your energy needs.
Types of Distributed Energy Resources Programs
Emergency Back-up Generators
This energy option should only be used when the local grid electricity supply is temporarily unavailable.
Load Displacement Generators
The load displacement program is for customers who produce electricity for solely self-consumption purposes at all times; no electricity will be exported back to the utility grid
Stand-Alone Generators
The purpose of this stand-alone generator would be to provide the grid with electricity and to receive compensation in return.
