UEC’s Net Metering program saw explosive growth in 2022. Nearly 50 residential solar arrays are now connected to the UEC system, representing one-half of 1% of our total residential membership. Solar arrays have doubled on the UEC system in the past 2 years; the largest in 2022 was installed by the Morrow County government building in Irrigon, a 23.4-kilowatt system capable of producing about 34,000 kWh of energy each year.
