Greenville Electric Utility System

Greenville Electric Utility System serves customers in Greenville in Texas with a residential electricity rate of $0.12 per kWh. This is 29% 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 Greenville Electric Utility System household using 900 kWh per month spends approximately $1,296 per year on electricity. An 8 kW solar system can offset most or all of that usage, saving an estimated $1,152 annually and $42,001 over the 25-year life of the system. The estimated payback period is 19.3 years.

As a municipal utility, Greenville Electric Utility System sets its own rates and policies independently. Greenville Electric Utility System 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 Greenville Electric Utility System interconnection, ensuring you receive every available rebate.
