San Antonio Boosting Incentives for Solar

ARE's Mission

The Alliance for Renewable Energy’s mission is to build support in North America for bold, proven, renewable energy policies that will rapidly increase our shift from fossil fuels to decentralized, clean, renewable energy. These policies call for 15-20 year contracts, with set rates and no limit on production, between all renewable energy producers and buyers.

From My San Antonio: "CPS Energy wants to spur San Antonio's solar industry by promising to buy power produced by local solar facilities.

The plan, based on feed-in tariffs that helped launch the solar industries in Spain and Germany, offers local solar producers 20-year contracts for their power at 27 cents per kilowatt-hour. That's roughly three times the rate that local residents pay CPS Energy for power." Read more.
