Will my electricity meter run backwards?

It depends on your specific utility company. Some offer straightforward ‘net metering,’ where any solar power you generate offsets your bill regardless of when it is consumed, often using a meter that can run both forward and backward. Others use a separate PV meter to track all your solar production, which the utility then uses to offset some or all of your usage. Speak with a Qmerit Electrification Advisor to understand what owning a solar energy system could mean for you.
