Innovation is an important pillar in our business, and we are committed to supporting clean, renewable energy programs. Learn about the programs and opportunities available to our customers.
Solar Panel and Wind Energy Programs
Distributed Generation
Customers with solar panels can earn incentives for the clean energy they generate. Through our Distributed Generation program, customers can receive permission to connect their energy source to our electrical system and sell excess electricity generated to RG&E.
Community Distributed Generation
Community distributed generation (CDG) allows an electrical production facility, such as a solar farm project, to share benefits through a subscription with residential and business participants who otherwise are not able to participate in a solar project. After signing up through a CDG project, participants receive a credit on their RG&E electricity bill.
Catch the Wind Program
Support the use of clean, renewable wind-generated electricity by participating in our Catch the Wind program.
