Not my power company! I live in Arab, Alabama and the Arab Electric Cooperative (AEC) does not accept renenwable energy. They are a reseller of TVA electricity and even though TVA has a program where they give the RE customer $1,000 startup cost and then retail plus $0.12 per kilowatt hour produced, they made it optional for the resellers like AEC to participate. AEC said no. At our annual meeting, they even handed out new incandescent bulbs. They are a cooperative in name only, not in operational terms.
