Net Metering Facility that Offsets Customer Load for the Month
The following example shows how the net metering credits would apply to the electric bill of a sample residential customer. The example assumes that the customer uses 600 kilowatt-hours in the month and generates 600 kilowatt-hours in the month, so that all of the customer's use is offset by onsite generation and there is no excess generation.
Net Metering Facility with Net Export for the Month
The following example shows how the net metering credits would apply to the electric bill of a sample residential customer, assuming that the customer uses 600 kilowatt-hours in the month and generates 1200 kilowatt-hours in the month, so that all of the customer's use is offset by onsite generation and there is 600 kilowatt-hours net excess generation for the month. NOTE: The result is that the customer gets a credit on their bill which can be applied to future bills or "assigned" to other customer accounts in the same service territory and Load Zone.
