Solrite VPP in Texas: offer for existing solar, per Reddit user
Unconfirmed: A Reddit user describes an 11.4 kW solar system in Texas with 1:1 buyback through TDXU, which does not cover import fees and is month-to-month. According to the post, Solrite now allows existing solar systems with 60 kWh backup battery systems, with $0 down and $25 per month under contract. The EFL the user cites lists 12.9 cents per kWh for import and the same value as a battery export credit. The text cuts off before showing the user's solar production, so the real savings cannot be evaluated.
- Solrite reportedly allows existing solar systems with 60 kWh batteries, per the post.
- Cited import rate: 12.9 cents per kWh, equal to the battery export credit.
🔎 Why it matters: No official confirmation: the user claims Solrite offers a 60 kWh battery for $25 per month under contract, based on their reading of the EFL.
📈 Upside: According to the post, Solrite would pay 12.9 cents per kWh for exports, compared with the 3 cents per kWh the user cites from Tesla Electric.
📉 Risk: The TDXU buyback is month-to-month and does not cover import fees, so the user could lose their current 1:1 arrangement at any time.
