In Missouri, Coal makes up 60.78% of the fuel used for electricity generation. Natural Gas (15.06%) is also used in electricity production, as well as Nuclear (12.46%). The state residents average 8,236.82 kilograms of CO2 emissions per resident from electricity use, which is sufficient to rank them 7th worst in the United States in this category. Total emissions from electricity use in the state is 50,886,704,912.54 kilograms, which is the 6th worst total amount of emissions for all states. There are 46 electricity plants in the state of Missouri, which is the 22nd highest number of power plants in a state in the nation and equates to the 37th highest amount of power plants per citizen.

Out of the 121 providers in Missouri, 102 of them offer net metering to their customers. The state has above average net metering and feed in tariffs that make solar and other alternative types of electricity generation more attractive.

The state has 40 electricity companies who report energy loss. The average energy loss amount for these providers is 2.82%. The nationwide average is 2.43%, meaning Missouri ranks 23rd best in the United States for energy loss efficiency.

States that want to foster personal solar can do so by passing tax incentives and rebates for solar purchase. Missouri, unfortunately, has no statewide tax credits offered to residents who purchase solar. Residents are able to apply for rebates of $500 or less for private solar installs. Fortunately, Missouri offers a 100% tax exemption to residents who wish to install solar panels at their home. The state currently does not offer a sales tax exemption for the install of private solar panels, leaving citizens out in the cold for this category.

Consumers who are shopping for electricity plans that are powered by renewable sources will benefit from state level legislation that encourage green energy usage. States that have Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) have requirements in place for all electricity providers who operate in the state. These standards dictate that a certain amount of electricity must be produced from green energy. While further improvements could be made, Missouri requires for 1-15% of electric production to come from renewable fuels. In addition, the state does not have any sort of low income solar programs that assist with the installation of solar panels at low income households.

Learn about going solar in Missouri, find out which system size is best for you, compare local installers and see which incentives are available in your area.
