SREC Program Details in

Washington D.C.

The nation's capital has aggressive renewable energy targets which creates an impressive and lucrative SREC market for homes and businesses with owned rooftop solar. D.C.'s Renewable Portfolio Standard aims for 100% renewable energy by 2032, bolstering the solar industry.

SREC prices remain high due to undersupply. Work with Currents to get your thousands in SREC payments. Only individuals who own (rather than lease) their solar energy system can sell SRECs in the D.C. SREC market.

All systems are required to have a revenue grade meter and report monthly meter readings. Currents will handle this automatically.
