Sharing our energy bill from first full summer month with Solar, we’ve got $52 credit. 🥳 Offsets with natural gas so we only paid $35 bill for June
How the billing works with solar is we get different rates for winter and summer. We’re in control when to switch the rates depending on our production.
Winter rate = $0.09 cents per kWh
Summer rate = $0.30 cents per kWh
The energy company pays us $0.30 cents/kWh for the energy we generate and export to the grid.
We in turn, get charged $0.30 cents/kWh if we import electricty from the grid.
That’s why it’s very important that we use major appliances during the day when we’re generating solar power to prevent too much import from the grid.
