Net Metering is how you turn the extra solar power you don't use into savings.

When your solar system produces more electricity than your home needs—usually during the peak sunny hours of Spring and Summer—that extra energy is automatically sent back to the power grid. Your utility company then gives you a credit for every kilowatt-hour you send them.

You can then use those credits to offset your bills during the cloudier months, ensuring you get the maximum value from your solar investment throughout the entire year.
