Bryan City Council To Revisit Last Month’s Decision Reducing The Amount Of Money Solar Customers Get For Selling Power To BTU

A special meeting of the Bryan city council last Friday (June 26) was moved from a conference room to council chambers due to the appearance of 15 BTU solar customers. Those customers are among 814 affected by a council decision made last month, agreeing with a BTU board recommendation to pay less to solar customers who sold their excess electricity to BTU. Four council members attending last Friday’s meeting agreed to modify last month’s decision. The BTU board’s recommendation that was approved by the council last month was based on solar customers not sharing BTU’s cost of providing electricity to retail customers.
