| Critical Information | Washington State's Okanogan County Public Utility District's (PUD) SNAP program began in October 2004. The program provides an incentive payment based on a $/kWh basis for renewable generators that connect to the electrical distribution system. The amount paid to renewable generators varies, depending on how much is contributed by PUD's customers through a green pricing program (the maximum payment is $1.00 kWh). The production payment is in addition to any net metering credit the producer may receive from the utility. Eligible energy resources are those that are fueled by wind, solar energy and other alternative energy resources. Renewables are limited to 100 kW, but the incentive will be adjusted to that of a 25 kW system. |
