SREC FAQs - What Ohio Homeowners Need to Know
SRECs, or solar renewable energy credits, are a powerful for you to earn extra income from your solar panels. Every unit of energy you produce is turned into a credit that you can sell. This means, beyond just saving on your electricity bill, you can actually get paid for the clean energy you produce. Signing up for SRECs is a simple, automatic process, and it boosts the return on your solar investment. Start earning more from the sun today!
SREC stands for Solar Renewable Energy Credit. When your solar system produces electricity, you earn credits based on the amount of clean energy generated. These credits can then be sold for additional income.
Your solar panels generate electricity for your home, and every qualifying amount of energy produced creates an SREC. Once your system is registered, the credits are tracked automatically and can be sold through approved programs or marketplaces.

SRECs help you get even more value from your solar investment. In addition to lowering your monthly utility bills, you can earn money back from the clean energy your system produces.
If your system qualifies, signing up for SRECs is one of the easiest ways to maximize your return on investment. It’s a simple process that can create long-term financial benefits while supporting renewable energy growth.
Not every system automatically qualifies. Eligibility depends on your location, utility requirements, and proper system registration. GENX Solutions USA can help determine whether your system qualifies and assist with registration.
