Utility rules and programs for Moore
Oklahoma Gas & Electric and Oklahoma Electric Coop serve Cleveland County, so which rules apply depends on your address.
| Utility | Type | Solar export rule |
|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma Gas & Electric Co | investor-owned | OG&E offers net energy billing for systems up to 300 kW: your solar offsets your use and leftover power is credited in dollars at its Avoided Energy Cost, with a time-of-use rate required. You need a two-way meter plus a production meter base and a lockable disconnect outdoors within 10 feet of the production meter, and you cannot switch on before OG&E issues Permission to Operate (review within 30 business days of a complete application). |
| Oklahoma Electric Coop Inc | member-owned cooperative | Oklahoma Electric Cooperative offers net metering up to 300 kW for members: your solar offsets your use, and leftover power is credited at avoided energy cost set by its supplier. You need an Oklahoma-licensed electrician, equipment certified to IEEE 1547, a lockable disconnect and a contract with the co-op. |
Program details are from each utility’s own pages (read October 2026). See the Oklahoma incentives table for statewide credits and a status for every program.

Solar Panel Installation in Moore FAQs
Is solar worth it in Moore?
The sun is strong (about 1,380 kWh a year per kW, our estimate), but export credits are low, so solar pays most when sized to what you use at home or paired with a battery. See the Oklahoma incentives for the state credit.
Is there a federal solar tax credit in 2026?
No. The federal 25D credit ended for expenditures after December 31, 2025. Oklahoma has no state home solar credit we could find; its zero-emission facilities credit (68 O.S. 2357.32A) is for plants of 1 MW or larger and is described as ending for solar after tax years through 2021.
Do I need a permit for solar panels in Moore?
Usually yes, and the utility may need to approve solar and batteries. Inspections Division, Planning and Development handles permits in Moore; see the permit information above.
