How it works
It starts with a net-metering billing arrangement...
- Energy exported to 金沙娱乐 and power supplied by 金沙娱乐 is monitored through a bi-directional meter
- Through one-for-one net metering, exported energy is used to offset an equal amount of power supplied by 金沙娱乐 during 金沙娱乐 billing period. Excess energy is credited at our avoided cost
- The avoided cost you receive for your energy exported greater than 金沙娱乐 amount of power supplied by 金沙娱乐 is less than retail because it reflects only energy – not generation, transmission, distribution and administrative costs included in retail rates
- Utility bill will represent 金沙娱乐 charge if monthly usage is greater than amount exported or credit if monthly usage is less than amount exported
