A members solar system production offsets or eliminates purchasing power from Tricounty (currently $0.12/kWh).

CURRENTLY, if the solar system overproduces or exports onto our system, we issue a kWh credit on the monthly bill with excess kWh’s above the monthly bill banked and paid out at the end of the year based on our avoided costs (currently $0.057/kWh)

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with Tri-County Rural Electric Cooperative (OH) before you rely on this. The useful move: if an installer says you need a main panel upgrade, ask how these tap and interconnection policies were considered first.
