Solar Net Meter
In Solar Net Metering excess electricity is fed into our electric utility’s/electricity board when our On-Grid or Hybrid Solar Power Plant produces more than our need, in that case our meter runs in reverse direction. When our system is not producing enough electricity as per our load, then we can draw it from your utility just like ordinary meter. Solar panels produce peak electricity in the afternoon, when many people aren’t home in peak times may be in offices. In home electricity use is typically higher in the evenings and mornings, then net metering helps you to reduce electricity bill by using Import and export Facilities.
The existing energy meter in our building or home will need to be replaced by a two-way (bidirectional) meter. This bidirectional energy meter or Net Meter is essential as it can measure both, energy import (from the grid to the Customer) and energy export (from the customer to the grid) separately.
