The next generation of power is here

Coastal Electric Cooperative has developed Coastal Georgia’s first community solar farm at our Midway headquarters facility. The Cooperative Solar farm gives Coastal Electric’s residential Members access to sustainable, maintenance-free solar energy without the hassles and costs associated with installing panels on their homes or businesses. With 4 megawatts of available capacity our initial production will be an average of 7 million kWhs annually.
Coastal Electric’s Cooperative Solar Program allows you to choose the number of solar power blocks that work best for your household or business and pay a fixed rate. The amount of energy produced by your solar blocks will appear on your monthly bill just as if you had rooftop solar panels.
Advantages of Cooperative Solar

How to Participate in the Solar Project
Sign Up & Availability
You will be able to sign up for two blocks of solar electricity. Requests for more blocks will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Only residences served by our electric grid can participate.
Remember, no contracts, no commitments. You can opt out at any time.
Pricing & Energy Production
Blocks of solar electricity are $25 each per month. Each block is equivalent to 2 kilowatts of solar capacity and expected to produce about 292 kilowatt-hours of solar energy monthly. Energy output will vary due to the sun’s angle, the time of year, the number of cloudy days in the month and other factors.
How it Reflects on Your Bill
The top line on your electric bill will reflect the total amount of electricity (in kilowatt-hours) used at your home. A second line on your bill will show ‘Cooperative Solar Credit’. That will be the amount of electricity produced by your solar panels for which you will have paid $25. Your solar credit is subtracted from the metered energy used at your home before your bill is calculated. If your solar block produces more kilowatt-hours than you use during your billing period, you will receive a credit for the excess.
No Contracts, No Commitments
You can discontinue your solar energy commitment at any time by notifying us. If you leave the program, Coastal Electric Renewables cannot guarantee there will be availability if you decide to rejoin. We will maintain a wait list for Members wishing to receive solar energy from our facility.
