Net Metering Program
How Net Metering Works in Prince Edward Island
Your solar system will connect to the grid in Charlottetown via the Net-Metering program. Excess energy you produce is credited by your power company at the retail electricity rate, balancing out your usage across day and night, as well as summer and winter months. Your credits expire after a year, so it's important to size your system based on your usage. The costs of electricity, abundant sunlight, and the Net-Metering program in Charlottetown, P.E.I. make it one of the best places in North America for solar.
