How Do I See My Savings?

1) The utility applies Solar Credits to your electric bill, reducing what you pay the utility.

​

2) Meadow invoices you for the Solar Credits at 90% of the Solar Credit value ($0.90 on the $1.00)​.​

​

3) You retain and realize savings equal to 10% of the Solar Credit value.

​

Example: If NYSEG/RGE applies $100 worth of Solar Credits to your bill, you pay them $100 less that month. Meadow then sends you a $90 invoice for those Solar Credits. After you pay Meadow, you save $10, or 10% of the value of the Solar Credits.
