Garland Power & Light (GP&L) offers a solar/photovoltaic installation program that allows customers to become distributed energy producers by generating their own electricity. To participate, customers must follow GP&L's Solar Generation Installation Requirements to ensure system and worker safety. Once all documentation and inspections are complete, a bi-directional meter is installed to measure the flow of electricity to and from the grid. Excess power sent to the GP&L system earns customers $0.0819 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). The meter tracks cumulative energy flow in both directions and is used for net metering, but it does not record total solar production.
