Net Metering is a program that uses a process in which your system is allowed to produce and store more energy than you can use during certain times of the year. During these times, your new Net Meter will feed any excess energy into your local power grid while tracking how much electricity was sent out. The biggest benefit of the Net Metering program is that your excess energy is returned to you in the form of a usable credit. On days where your system may not produce as much electricity as you use, you will be able to pull any credits you have stored back into your home at no charge to you.
