Sign up for sun power

Still on the fence about participating in Walton EMC’s Cooperative Solar? Here are five reasons to sign up:

  1. HASSLE-FREE. Walton EMC operates and maintains Cooperative Solar, meaning you skip installation and maintenance inconveniences common with private solar systems.
  2. LOW COST. A block of solar power production is $25 a month. The energy output of your portion is credited to your monthly power bill.
  3. NO LONG-TERM COMMITMENT. Discontinue your solar energy commitment at any time.
  4. ANYONE CAN PARTICIPATE. Obstacles like improper roof orientation, excessive roof shading, or restrictive subdivision covenants are frequent barriers to private solar installations. However, any customer-owner with a residence connected to Walton EMC’s electric grid can participate in Cooperative Solar.
  5. GO GREEN. Solar energy from our Cooperative Solar project offsets energy produced from traditional fuels. Since becoming operational in August 2015, the co-op’s energy output has equaled taking almost 15,000 cars off the road.
