What is net metering?

Net metering is the billing system utilities use to credit homeowners with solar for the electricity their solar panels produce. With net metering, you only pay for the electricity that you use beyond what your solar panels can generate. Net metering policies differ from state to state, and in certain locations you’re better off going solar if you also install energy storage. Speak with a Qmerit Electrification Advisor to understand net metering policies at your location.
