How Solar Energy Powers Your Home & Net Metering Explained

Where does the energy from your PV system go? What happens when there is a shortage or excess amount of energy production? What is net metering?

In short, energy produced by your PV system flows wherever it is needed. During the daytime, with the sun shining, your home or business will utilize the energy from your solar energy system to supply your electrical load of lights, appliances, TV's, computers, etc.. In the event that your PV system over-generates energy then the energy will flow onto the utility grid for your neighbors and nearby schools and businesses to utilize. This excess energy is metered and will be credited to your monthly utility bill. This give and take relationship is known as net metering and helps your PV system save you money.

 

As a turnkey solar installer, SolFarm Solar Co. is with you every step of the way and beyond. We will execute all necessary documents for your permitting, zoning and net metering agreement with the utility.
