We are in the process of notifying customers nearing the end of their seven-year enrollment period in certain company legacy rooftop solar export programs that they will soon be transitioned to the new Smart Renewable Energy program. hwnelec.co/Tj3s50TfPI9

Smart Renewable Energy is the next phase in our push to bring more customer-sited renewable energy onto the grid. It offers an export & non-export track, consolidates, & replaces all previous rooftop solar export programs except Net Energy Metering (NEM)/NEM Plus.

Transition to Smart Renewable Energy is automatic & doesn't require any action from customers but will require an advanced meter and customers will be auto-enrolled in the Shift & Save time-of-use rate, w/ the option to decline at any time at hwnelec.co/6rMP50TeZ0I. Read:

Smart Renewable Energy & BYOD are the culmination of a multi-year regulatory effort that included input from the Public Utilities Commission, solar industry representatives, & the Consumer Advocate. For more information about transition/new programs, visit:
