== Programs == {{Update|section|date=August 2024}} Since 1998, Xcel Energy's Windsource program has allowed customers to designate that part or all of their electricity comes from a [[renewable energy]] source. In 2015, about 96,000 people were enrolled in Windsource.<ref name="Xcel-Energy-Inc-Feb-2016-10-K">{{cite web|url=http://edgar.secdatabase.com/1761/7290316000123/filing-main.htm |title=Xcel Energy Inc, Form 10-K, Annual Report, Filing Date Feb 19, 2016 |website=SECDatabase.com |access-date =May 5, 2018}}</ref> In 2011, more than 2.3 million electric and 261,800 natural gas customers took part in Xcel Energy's energy efficiency programs for homes and businesses.<ref name="2011 Energy Efficiency Program Results">{{cite web|title=2011 Energy Efficiency Program Results|url=http://www.xcelenergy.com/staticfiles/xe/Corporate/CRR2011/clean-energy/energy-efficiency/program-results.html|work=Xcel Energy 2011 Corporate Responsibility Report|publisher=Xcel Energy|access-date=1 November 2012|year=2011}}</ref> Xcel Energy also offers customers incentives to install solar panels. At the end of 2011, more than 10,600 photovoltaic systems had been installed, with a capacity of about 121 megawatts (DC). In early 2011, Xcel Energy suspended the solar rebate program before reaching a settlement a month later with representatives of solar power companies to restore the solar incentive program until it is fully reviewed by the Public Utilities Commission.<ref name="Colorado PUC OKs Xcel solar incentives settlement">{{cite news|title=Colorado PUC OKs Xcel solar incentives settlement|url=http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/news/2011/03/18/colorado-puc-oks-xcel-solar-incentives.html|access-date=1 November 2012|newspaper=Denver Business Journal|date=18 March 2011}}</ref>
