Solar rates

Our current high and low solar rates.

Two seasonal rates, each applied to every kilowatt-hour you import from and export to the grid.

Solar High Rate
April – October
40¢/kWh
Applies to both imports and exports
In the sunnier months your panels usually send more power to the grid than you draw, so you're paid the higher rate on the extra power you export.
Solar Low Rate
November – March
5.29¢/kWh
Applies to both imports and exports
Through winter you tend to pull more from the grid than you send back, so you pay the lower rate on the power you import.

How it works

Two seasons, two simple rates.

Instead of complicated time-of-use pricing, PowerBill keeps solar simple: your rate depends only on the season, and it's the same for the power you use and the power you send back.

April – October

Long, sunny days mean your panels often export more than you import. You earn the higher 40¢/kWh rate on that surplus.

November – March

Shorter days mean you pull more from the grid than you send back. You pay the lower 5.29¢/kWh rate on what you import.

Imports and exports

One rate each season, applied both ways, no separate export price to track, and no surprises on your bill.
