Georgetown Utility Systems

Georgetown Utility Systems serves customers in Georgetown in Texas with a residential electricity rate of $0.11 per kWh. This is 35% below the national average of $0.168/kWh, though solar still delivers strong returns with today’s lower installation prices.

At current rates, a typical Georgetown Utility Systems household using 900 kWh per month spends approximately $1,188 per year on electricity. An 8 kW solar system can offset most or all of that usage, saving an estimated $1,056 annually and $38,501 over the 25-year life of the system. The estimated payback period is 21.1 years.

As a municipal utility, Georgetown Utility Systems sets its own rates and policies independently. Georgetown Utility Systems offers net metering, allowing solar customers to receive credits for excess energy sent back to the grid.

The federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired at the end of 2025. State and utility-level incentives are now the primary financial benefits for homeowners going solar. NuWatt Energy handles the entire process from system design through permits and Georgetown Utility Systems interconnection, ensuring you receive every available rebate.
