Product: HOMER Grid 1.2

Follow these steps to achieve this:

1. Select the genability tariff you want by entering the postal code in Choose Tariff:



Step 2: After you have added the tariff to your model, click the export button on the right and save the tariff on your local desktop.



Step 3: Click the plus button (+) found on the top of the Tariff page-> Import Tariff -> Launch the Tariff Builder Application


Step 4: Clicking the button would launch a new application (Tariff Builder). Click "Create New Tariff".
Follow these directions to create a new generation tariff, and save that as a separate json file. For instructions on how to do this, follow:  https://www.homerenergy.com/products/grid/docs/1.2/create_new_tariff.html


Step 5: Once you have the two json files on your local computer. You can combine them, with the Combine Tariffs option. 


This would ask you to select the two json files. Once you click OK, you can view the combined list of rates/charges. You should save this combined tariff as a new json file.
