Yes. The Reliant Solar Payback Plus plan helps you make the most out of your solar panels. 

You'll earn bill credits, applied to your monthly Reliant bill, when you send excess solar energy back to the grid. No limit applies to the number of credits you can earn. The credit value differs from the per kWh energy rate we charge for the electricity plan. The credit per kWh for the excess energy sent to the grid will be a fixed amount disclosed in your Electricity Facts Label. It may take up to three billing cycles after receiving Permission to Operate (PTO) from your utility to begin receiving credits.

The electricity your solar panels produce helps to power your home. If your panels produce more electricity than your home needs, the extra electricity is delivered to the grid.

Please see the Terms of Service for information of solar credits following termination of your plan.

1See Electricity Facts Label or contact Reliant for details on solar production credit amount. Credit value differs from the per kWh energy rate we charge for the electricity plan. It may take up to 3 billing cycles after receiving Permission to Operate (PTO) from your utility to begin receiving credits. 

2To receive bill credits, customer must have solar panels at the utility service address and an active interconnection agreement with the utility (or TDSP). Customer must have a meter installed and configured by their TDSP that measures the inflow and outflow of electricity to and from their home. 

A dual-register meter beyond the Smart Meter may be required to measure generation and consumption. The customer’s home generation system must be connected to the grid by their TDSP to receive monthly payments for their surplus generation as reported by their TDSP. The customer must be located in a competitive ERCOT market. This plan requires the customer to have solar panels at their house and an active interconnection agreement with their TDSP.
