As an electricity user, your total electricity charges are based on the amount of energy consumed at your home and any other fees from your electric utility provider. With your Sunscription account, you receive Solar Credits and make a payment to Sunscription each billing period; the value of the Solar Credits and payment are based on the amount of energy generated at the Solar Garden. Because the amount of sunlight per day varies with the seasons and weather patterns, the solar energy generated - and the corresponding Solar Credits and payments - will also vary.
​

When there is more sunshine being converted into electricity, you will pay Sunscription more and receive higher Solar Credits on your electric bill. With a decrease in solar energy production, you will pay Sunscription less and receive smaller Solar Credits on your electric bill.
​

There are several factors that affect how your Solar Credits compare to your normal electric bill charges. These factors include:

Depending on these variables, you Solar Credits can cover part of your electric utility charges, all of your electric utility charges, or all of your charges with an additional, excess credit amount left over. In some cases, your payment to Sunscription can be larger that your initial charges with your utility.

The state and program you are a part of determine your savings rate structure and overall savings with your Sunscription account. Refer to your agreement for your estimated total savings. The main point is, the more clean energy the Solar Garden produces, the more Solar Credits your receive!
