Solar Farm

Duck River EMC has become the first distributor in the TVA system to construct a solar farm that qualifies for the Generation Partners Program.

With over a dozen solar installations by members on DREMC lines, it is evident that there is a segment of our membership that is interested in supporting solar and taking advantage of the premium pricing TVA offers.

The intent of this solar farm installation was to provide an opportunity to interested members and pass along the $.12 premium pricing offered by TVA’s Generation Partners program; that’s over $.22 per kWh today! DREMC made its 25.92kW solar farm capacity available to members for an investment of $600 per unit of limited partnership interest, equivalent to the production of a half panel with a total of 216 units. Each of the 108 panels installed at DREMC’s headquarters facility is 240W Sharp panels manufactured right here in Tennessee.

Currently, the solar farm is fully subscribed.
