We''re bringing you a plan that lets you protect the planet in big ways — all while staying local. The Go Local Solar plan lets you tap into 100% local solar electricity from solar parks right here in Texas and is Green-e® Energy certified. Whether you own your home or rent, you can use the sun for good with no roof required and zero up-front costs.
As a bonus, we''ll set aside money each month on your behalf for the Green Mountain Energy Solar Fund, created to help pay for a variety of projects, programs and solar-related technologies. Because growing solar power in Texas means a brighter planet.
When you sign up for the Go Local Solar plan, we purchase Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from solar parks in Texas. At times when the sun isn''t shining, like during cloudy days and at night, we continue to power your home using electricity from the grid. We then purchase additional RECs to match your energy usage on this plan.
If the solar parks produce less energy than expected, we''ll purchase additional Texas Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs) to match your usage. This guarantees that there will be enough solar energy produced locally to match the electricity usage of your home.
A solar park (also known as a solar farm) is a location that hosts a network of solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity that is then fed into the electricity grid. Green Mountain Energy purchases RECs from solar parks operated by third parties to meet the energy needs of our customers enrolled in this plan.

Green Mountain Energy Gable Solar Park (near Houston)
Green Mountain Energy Azure Solar Park (near McAllen)
These solar parks are registered with ERCOT and the PUCT as Bovine Solar, LLC, Yellow Jacket Solar, LLC and Azure Solar, LLC. For our use, Bovine Solar, LLC is branded as Green Mountain Energy Gable Solar Park, Yellow Jacket Solar, LLC is branded as Green Mountain Energy Dakota Solar Park, and Alexis Solar LLC is branded as Green Mountain Energy Azure Solar Park.
The Green Mountain Energy Go Local Solar plan is Green-e Energy certified and meets the environmental and consumer-protection standards set forth by the nonprofit Center for Resource Solutions. Learn more at green-e .

For a complete listing of the prospective resources to be included in this product, see the 2023 Prospective Product Content Label.
1 For our Green-e Energy certified competitive electricity customers, we provide RECs that come from the same electric grid in which our customers are located. That means if you''re a Texas customer, the RECs come from the part of Texas served by the Texas electric grid (ERCOT).
2 We use a Green-e Energy approved auditor to annually verify that our Green-e Energy certified products meet Green-e requirements. Green-e then uses the auditor''s finding as the basis for certifying our eligible products.
3 We undergo an annual Marketing Compliance Review administered by Green-e Energy to ensure that the marketing materials and customer communications for our Green-e Energy certified products meet the requirements set forth in the Green-e Energy Code of Conduct.

You''ve already taken a big step toward helping the planet by making the eco-friendly choice to install a solar panel system. Let us help you make the most of your investment with Renewable Rewards® — the Green Mountain Energy solar buyback plan that gives you credit for excess renewable energy produced by your solar panel system. When you sign up for a Renewable Rewards plan, you can save on your energy costs and shrink your carbon footprint, too.
When you use grid electricity, we''ll make sure it''s 100% renewable.
If you have solar panels, you can get rewarded for your excess solar energy.
Installing a rooftop solar system will help you save on energy costs for years to come, and with Renewable Rewards, you''ll be credited when you produce more energy than you use. You''ll also significantly lower your home''s carbon footprint and help ensure a cleaner, greener future for the planet.
The Renewable Rewards Buyback Program is available to new and existing residential customers in Texas who:
Yes. You''ll need a meter configured by your utility that separately measures the inflow and outflow of electricity to and from your home. Your utility may charge for this meter, and these charges would be passed through to you on your Green Mountain bill.
Yes! Both current and new Green Mountain Energy customers who meet the program requirements listed above can enroll in a Renewable Rewards buyback plan. If you''re a current customer enrolled in a plan with a cancellation fee, we will waive that fee if you would like to switch to a Renewable Rewards buyback plan, assuming all the requirements are met.
To put it simply, net metering lets you produce energy for the grid beyond what you use for your own home. With Renewable Rewards, you''ll receive a bill credit for excess energy that you''ve produced.
Because some days are sunnier than others, your panels don''t generate the same amount of electricity each day. On cloudy days or at night, you may need to draw power from your local electric grid. But on a bright, sunny and clear day, your panels may generate more energy than you need.
