2005年推出, SNAP connects local people who want to produce small-scale renewable energy with local members who want to support it
SNAP producers install their own renewable power systems. Part of their payments are from voluntary contributions.
In 2010, SNAP Plus was introduced as GVEA’s Net Metering Program.
截至2023年1月, 681 members currently participate in the SNAP and SNAP Plus programs of which 99% of capacity comes from solar energy.
These producers have a combined capacity of 4,010 kilowatts (kW).

You use exactly the same amount of electricity that you produce. You would owe only the customer charge. You produce more electricity than you use. You make the SNAP+ overproduction rate on any extra kWh that you produce. This is used to pay the Customer Charge and if there is a surplus, it is placed on your account as a credit.
