Generation Partners Contractors Generation Partners provides technical support and incentives for homes and businesses that generate their own renewable power including solar, wind, biomass and low-impact hydropower. TVA buys all of the green power at a rate of 12 cents per kilowatt-hour for solar and 3 cents per kilowatt-hour for other renewables above the local electric rate. Payment is made in the form of a credit on the customer's monthly NES bill. TVA currently gets fewer than 50 megawatts of power from renewable sources. But they have a goal of buying up to 2,000 megawatts of wind, solar or biomass and increasing purchases through Generation Partners up to another 200 megawatts. For more information or to being the installation process, call Energy Services Engineering at 615-747-3775.
