About Net Metering for Your Solar Power

Make money selling solar back to the grid

If you’re like most homeowners, you probably had no idea that you could actually make money by selling solar power back to the grid. Thanks to net metering, this is now a possibility, and it’s a great way to maximize the benefits of having solar panels installed on your home.

Monitor electricity usage with an Eyedro energy monitor

Net metering is a billing mechanism that electricity companies use to compensate energy customers for the electricity they generate and contribute back to the electrical grid. During peak electricity hours the solar panels on your home may be producing excess electricity that can help you offset your solar investment.

Calculate your net metering credits

Net metering allows homeowners to receive credit for any excess electricity they generate from their roof-mounted solar panels. If electricity companies in your area offer net metering, that means you can sell electricity back to the power grid for a profit!

Save Money on Your Energy Bills

With electricity rates constantly on the rise, you can save a lot of money in the long run by selling solar power back to the grid. Not only are you already generating electricity from the power of the sun, but in some states, net metering customers are credited a set rate for every kilowatt-hour of electricity they generate and contribute back to the grid.

Selling solar power that you are generating in excess of your household needs just makes sense (and cents too)!

Share Your Solar Power

Net metering also helps the electricity grid as a whole. That’s because net-metered energy is, in most cases, the electricity that would otherwise be generated by fossil fuel power plants and released into our environment as greenhouse gases contributing to global climate change or through pollution impacting human health.

Reduce Demand for Electricity

Solar energy is becoming more and more popular and it is helping to reduce the demand for electricity from centralized power plants. That’s because when homeowners generate their own electricity with solar panels on their roofs, it helps reduce the strain on the grid both during peak and non-peak hours.
