Net metering support
Send your surplus solar power to the grid.
With net metering, a grid-connected solar system can export electricity you do not use to the grid and receive credit for it, under the rules of your distribution company. We help you understand whether it suits your site and what the process involves.

The problem
Solar produces most when you may use least
Solar output peaks around midday, but many homes and businesses use more power in the evening or on different schedules. Without net metering, surplus daytime power can go to waste.
Net metering lets that surplus flow to the grid, with credits recorded on a meter that measures both directions. It can help you make fuller use of your roof without paying for batteries.
