Commercial customers who received a solar energy system with no upfront costs and are purchasing the electricity from our subsidiary @SolShareEnergy will only see only a 1.15% increase.
Today new BC Hydro rates came into effect. It is an average net increase of 2.3% customers without solar energy. Of course, customers who have purchased a solar energy system will see no increase for the electricity their system produces.

Denver Housing Authority used a PPA to install solar energy and reduce operating costs for social housing. With no capital costs. Why aren't we doing this is in BC?

BC Hydro is currently setting new demand records. Unfortunately solar energy arrays are covered in snow. But one of our systems is still helping reduce demand a little due to @Qcells_NA bifacial technology. Thanks to our community owners and @tantaluswine !

Here in BC companies can install renewable energy through a PPA for less than the cost of a REC. There are fewer and fewer reasons to use them.
