What Is Net Metering And.9450282.powerpoint

Net metering is a process where homeowners with solar panels send excess energy produced to the power grid and receive credits on their electricity bill. When solar panels generate more energy than needed, it is fed back into the grid. At night or when sun is unavailable, homeowners can draw electricity from the grid using these credits without cost. The net meter tracks the flow of energy both into and out of the home on an hourly basis to calculate monthly credits or charges.

What is net metering and how does it work?

Many people are now taking steps towards solar energy by reducing
their fossil fuel and normal power electricity supply dependency.
There are many benefits to using solar energy. The best benefit of
installing solar at your place is, you can send back the excess solar
energy produced by the solar panels to the power grid and enjoy the
credits that the government gives in electricity bills. This process of
getting incentives is called net metering.
What is net metering?
Net Metering or net energy metering is a process of getting
incentives by sending excess solar energy to the public grid through
the power grid and get credits at the end of the month. When your
solar panels produce more energy than your requirement, that
excess energy is directly sent to the power supply grid for the
credits in exchange for it.
In the nights and on the cloudy days when sunlight doesn’t appear,
you can use those credits in the form of electricity through the
power grid. This will not cost you because you are using the
electricity that you have produced from the solar power system and
saved in the power grid. If you don’t use all the credits, remaining
will come into your hand at the end of the month or year.
How does Net Metering Works?
The solar power in Brisbane produces electricity most in the
afternoon but at that time most people have less energy
requirement.
According to researches, people use energy in the morning and
evening the most. Net metering allows you to use the energy when
you need and when you are not using it will be deposited for the
latter use.
Net metering is the type of advantage for you because if it doesn’t
there to store your excess energy produced then you will waste the
energy more and more. It helps you to store your excess energy and
gives you credits in exchange. When your solar panels will not
produce the energy when you need them, you can easily take the
backup from your utility power grid.
When you produce more energy than your need, excess energy will
be sent back to the grid and you will receive the credits in electricity
bills on the basis of the net amount of KW per hour energy you send
to the power grid. If your solar power system produces less energy
