SUNBEAM INNOVATIONS
New York has transitioned away from traditional 1:1 net metering for many new solar projects and adopted a more advanced compensation model called the Value of Distributed Energy Resources (VDER), often referred to as the "Value Stack." If you use utilities like ConEdison, National Grid, or NYSEG, understanding VDER is vital.
Under VDER, your utility company credits you for the excess energy your solar panels produce, but the rate isn't a flat 1:1 ratio. Instead, you are compensated based on exactly when and where you provide power to the grid. If your panels produce energy during peak demand hours, you earn a higher credit value. These credits are applied to your bill to offset the power you draw at night or during the winter.
The VDER calculation is incredibly complex, factoring in energy value, capacity value, and environmental value. At SunBeam Innovations, our engineers run sophisticated models to properly size your system, ensuring you maximize your Value Stack compensation and effectively eliminate your electric bill.
Our engineers will build a custom solar blueprint engineered for your operation — backed by 30-year linear warranties and Tier-1 equipment.
