What is Net Metering?

Net metering is a way of measuring the difference between the power you purchase from your utility company and the power your home's solar system produces. With net metering, any surplus electricity your solar system produces is channeled back to the utility grid, spinning your meter backward. When your system produces more electricity than your home uses, the utility company may credit your account for the extra power generated.

Why do I still have an electric bill?

When your system was designed, it was guaranteed to produce as certain kWh amount annually as listed in your contract. A remaining bill may indicate your usage has increased since going solar and is using more power.

What is Time-Of-Use (TOU)?

Time-of-use is a rate plan in which rates vary according to the time of day, season, and day type (weekday or weekend/holiday). Higher rates are charged during the peak demand hours and lower rates during off-peak (low) demand hours.How to customize formatting for each rich text
