Net metering & bills
Net metering lets a grid-connected solar home send surplus daytime electricity to the grid and receive credit for it, which is then adjusted against electricity taken from the grid at other times. In practice, the benefit depends on your daytime usage, your system size, your distribution company's process and the tariff rules in force at the time. This category explains the process in order, the documents to keep ready, and how to read a net-metering bill without assuming any fixed saving. Rules and tariffs can change, so always confirm the current rules with your distribution company before you commit.
