Solar PV Continues to Gain

Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems - rooftop or freestanding solar arrays - made significant gains in the Modesto area during 2010 thanks in part to MID rebate programs. The kWh figures in the table below represent energy MID didn't have to buy or generate for customers. MID salutes our customers for their interest in renewable energy!

  Applications Rebates *kWh Generated
Residential systems 38 $518,434 639,488
Business systems 18 **$781,976 3,327,680
*kWh = kilowatthours
**Large system rebates paid over 10 years; first payment shown here

About the MID Victory Garden

In recent years Americans realized a war is on against a new enemy. It's called global warming. A scientific breakthrough could quickly end this climate threat. Or the world may be entangled in decades of struggle and sacrifice.

No one can predict the outcome. But after 112 years of resource stewardship and service to agriculture, MID understands a few things: That lasting change comes about one person, one plot of ground, one pace forward at a time. That seeds of change planted today yield a harvest of victory one day in the future.

Each month MID writes about one of the seeds we've planted in our Victory Garden. You can read about them in the MID Update (PDF), the monthly newsletter with our electric bill, or on this web page.
