Key Points

  • Solar renewable energy credits (SRECs) are incentives that allow customers to earn credits for selling energy produced from their solar panels to utilities.
  • Currently, only seven states and Washington D.C. have SREC markets.
  • If you live in a state with an SREC market, you can sell SRECs to utilities and earn money.
  • Supply and demand determine SREC prices.
