Central Georgia EMC’s Cooperative Solar Program makes it easy and affordable for members to enjoy the benefits of clean, renewable solar energy—without installing panels on your property.

Through Green Power EMC Solar Projects across Georgia, participating members share in the output of large-scale solar facilities that deliver dependable, sustainable power to our cooperative network. You can choose the number of solar energy blocks that best fit your household’s needs and start receiving renewable energy credits directly on your electric bill.

How It Works

For $19 per month per 1 kW block, you’ll receive a credit on your monthly bill for the actual kilowatt-hours (kWh) generated by your solar energy block(s).

  • Each block produces an average of 184 kWh per month, depending on sunlight, weather, and seasonal conditions.
  • If your solar generation exceeds your energy use for the billing period, you’ll receive credit for the excess energy in accordance with CGEMC’s Net Metering Service Rider.
  • The $19 charge for each block appears as a separate line item on your monthly bill.

Benefits of Cooperative Solar

  • Affordable access to renewable solar energy
  • No maintenance or installation required
  • Ideal for renters or members with shaded or restricted properties
  • No zoning or HOA obstacles
  • No holes in your roof or long-term contracts
