Credit:As the next step in its energy efficiency program, CPS Energy plans to vastly increase the amount of community solar capacity available in San Antonio.
The utility phased out its residential rooftop solar rebates at the end of last year amid concerns the rebates were subsidizing solar panels for more affluent CPS Energy customers who could already afford them. Initially launched in 2009, the program sought to save the utility 771 megawatts by 2020, allowing CPS Energy to avoid building a new fossil fuel-burning power plant. That goal was achieved in 2019 and saved 845 megawatts.
