Who serves its customers, 2025
Kind of utility	Customers	Share of customers
Investor owned	652,060	40.6%
Cooperative	794,412	49.5%

Other	45,681	2.8%

Customers of full-service and energy-only providers, as EIA counts them; delivery-only customers are the same people, so they are not counted twice.

Customer-owned generation (net metering)

Net-metered capacity in Mississippi by technology, MW, with installations and energy sold back to the grid
Year	Photovoltaic (MW)	Battery or storage (MW)	Other (MW)	All technologies (MW)	Installations	Energy sold back (MWh)
2021	7.2		0.1	7.3	818	680
2022	9.2	0.1	0.1	9.3	1,028	906
2023	10.8	0.1	0.1	10.9	1,271	1,010
2024	14.4	0.1	0.1	14.5	1,899	919
2025	17.4	0.1	0.1	17.5	2,154	2,944

Before 2023, EIA reported storage paired with photovoltaic inside the photovoltaic group; from 2023, batteries are their own group, paired with photovoltaic or not. Neither is added into photovoltaic here.

Net metering by sector, 2025
Sector	All technologies (MW)	Installations	Energy sold back (MWh)
Residential	10.7	2,030	1,982
Commercial	5.4	112	482
Industrial	1.3	12	480

Distributed generation that is not net metered

A different arrangement: customer-sited or utility-owned generation that is paid or credited some other way, or not at all. EIA reports it separately, and it is not added to the net metering figures.

Distributed capacity in Mississippi that is not net metered, MW
Year	Photovoltaic	Other	Internal Combustion	Hydroelectric	All technologies (MW)
2021	5.7	2.0	2.0	0.0	9.7
2022	4.3	2.0	2.0		8.2
2023	4.8	2.0	2.0		8.7
2024	5.2	2.0	2.2		9.4
2025	5.3	2.0	2.2		9.4

We do not restate net metering rules, which change. The rules are with Mississippi Public Service Commission · the DSIRE policy database (NC Clean Energy Technology Center)

Community solar

The laboratory's list as of September 2026 has no community solar project serving customers in Mississippi.

These counts and capacities are our own sums of the laboratory's project list; its license keeps us from publishing a copy of the list itself. About the dataset
