UNDERSTANDING NET METERING CREDITS
3
Utility meters do not track
direct input from solar.
Meters track input from
the grid and surplus from
solar sent back to the grid.
1
Solar and utility power
work together to supply
your home with the amount
of energy it demands.
2
Sometimes, the solar energy
is enough to satisfy the
demand for the entire
house, while returning
additional power to the grid.

Even if little or no surplus
energy is returned to the
grid, monthly KWH use on
a bill will be lower due to
the offset from solar power.
You save by both reduced
use and surplus credit.
