Power Your Business with Clean, Renewable Energy
El Paso Electric’s Business Community Solar program gives businesses access to solar energy without installing panels on their property. This voluntary program allows businesses to subscribe to energy generated from our dedicated solar facility, helping them reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining reliable power.
The Texas Business Solar Program is for Texas commercial customers only on Schedule 24 General Service Rate, Schedule 25 Large Power Service Rate, or Schedule 41 City and County Service Rate. Subscriptions will be filled on a first come, first served basis by submitting a complete enrollment form. Due to limited availability, enrollment does not guarantee your participation, and acceptance into the program will be subject to verification by El Paso Electric. You will be notified of program enrollment prior to your first Texas Business Solar Program billing. If enrollment requests exceed availability, you will be notified and automatically added to a waiting list.
