Iowa’s net metering law requires utilities to credit solar customers at the retail rate for excess electricity sent back to the grid. When your Monticello solar system produces more power than you use (on sunny afternoons, for example) that surplus flows to the grid and appears as a credit on your next bill. During low-production periods, you draw from the grid and use those credits to offset the cost. Wolf River Electric sizes every system with your specific utility’s net metering program in mind.

Yes. Wolf River Electric accepts solar orphans: systems installed by other providers that need repairs, monitoring, or upgrades. If your Monticello solar system is underperforming or your original installer is no longer in business, our team can diagnose the issue, identify the cause, and bring your system back to peak production.
