Rate Plans and Incentives for Renewable Generation Systems
Solar Billing Plan
The Solar Billing Plan (SBP) is a new program for customers who apply for interconnection of an eligible renewable generating system, such as solar or wind, after April 14, 2023. The Solar Billing Plan succeeds the Net Energy Metering (NEM) 2.0 program.
Self-Generation Incentive Program
If you are an SCE customer and interested in increasing the reliability of your electric service, be better prepared for outages and Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS), we offer incentives available through the Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP).
Net Energy Metering
For customers who applied for interconnection prior to April 15, 2023, Net Energy Metering (NEM) is a rate option that allows customers with an eligible renewable generating system to receive a credit for the surplus electricity supplied to the electric grid.
Virtual Net Metering
Virtual Net Metering (VNM) allows energy produced by a renewable generating facility to be credited to individual tenants and/or common area utility accounts. As of February 15, 2024, Schedule NEM-V-ST is closed to new customers and a new Virtual Solar Billing Plan went into effect.
