Thank you for visiting our site. The Arkansas Renewable Energy Association (AREA) was formed in 1992. Since that time AREA has intervened in numerous Public Service Dockets on behalf of RE in Arkansas and in 2001 the Arkansas Renewable Energy Development Act passed, which gave us net metering. In 2007 the law was amended to require the carry-over of net excess generation. During the recently completed 2009 session, HB1851, a bill sponsored by Kathy Webb narrowly missed getting out of committee. We are confident that Arkansas will get a "feed-in-tariff" passed the next full session.Two New Seminars hosted by Solar Energy International in NW Arkansas.

 AREA is an ASES Chapter.
In mounting the Renewable Energy Feed-In-Tariff (REFIT) effort, we garnered contacts and support from all over the state and realized that it was time to take AREA to the next level. To that end, we have filed for our 501(c)3 status and will be able to accept contributions once we have been approved. To go along with this we have become an Arkansas chapter of the American Solar Energy Society. If you are interested in joining AREA in one capacity or another, please let us know your interest level. A united effort in our mutual cause of expanding the adoption rate of renewable energy systems will create a greater likelihood of success. |
