BEMC is among the top co-ops in NC for rooftop mounted solar, with more than 100 solar rooftop installations and the numbers are growing!
Established in 2015, BEMC’s aggressive net metering program for both residential and commercial members is one of the first true net metering systems in North Carolina. Owners of small renewable energy systems receive retail credit for a portion of the electricity their panels generate.
Your project may also qualify for our Weatherization Loan program, which provides loans to homeowners and small businesses for energy efficiency improvements and some renewable energy projects.
BEMC is not affiliated with any solar panel installation company but our Renewable Energy Specialist is happy to help you get started in the right direction. Always do your research and read reviews before you select a solar provider to ensure you’re getting a good deal that meets your expectations. If you need help figuring out the best solar solution for your lifestyle, call us at 800-842-5871.
