On this price plan, customers with rooftop solar panels can save on the energy they buy from SRP. To maximize savings, use your major appliances during off-peak hours and stagger major appliance usage during on-peak hours.

    How it works

    Oftentimes, customers who have solar panels need to supplement the energy they generate with power from SRP.

    Much like the SRP Time-of-Use (TOU) Price Plan, the Customer Generation Price Plan allows you to save money on your electric bill by using less electricity during on-peak hours. The difference with this plan is that it offers two additional ways to save on your bill:

    • The energy charge on this plan is about half the rate of the TOU plan – the lowest of any SRP residential price plan.
    • There is a per-kilowatt demand charge, based upon your usage of the energy supplied by SRP. By avoiding the use of appliances during on-peak hours and using appliances one at a time, you can keep the demand charge lower.

    This is the plan for you if:

    • You want low per-kWh energy prices for energy supplied by SRP.
    • You want the potential to save by managing your energy demand.
    • Your demand is typically consistent.

    Pricing

    You'll see a per-kilowatt demand charge on your bill – it’s based upon your usage of the energy supplied by SRP.

    The demand charge is based on the 30-minute interval during on-peak hours when your home used the most electricity. These intervals are measured between every hour and half-hour during on-peak hours (from 2 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. to 3 p.m., for example).

    On-peak hours are weekdays from 5–9 a.m. and 5–9 p.m. from November through April and weekdays from 2–8 p.m. May through October. All other hours are off-peak, including weekends and six observed holidays Open tooltip to learn more., and the demand charge does not apply.

    You’ll also see a monthly service charge, which helps cover the costs of grid access and maintenance. It's $32.44 on this plan for most residential customers. A portion of this plan's monthly service charge is based on the size of your home's service entrance section (SES) – the electrical panel where power enters the home. Most homes within SRP's service territory will be billed $32.44 per month. Some very large homes with an SES larger than 200 amps will pay $45.44 per month.

    The service charge is higher on this plan than on the TOU price plan because TOU customers pay a higher energy charge and grid costs are partially collected through those rates.
