HOME / Photovoltaic panel metering rules - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTDNet metering doesn't just apply to solar, either. Solar net metering is by far the most common type, but depending on the rules in your state, you may be able to net meter with other types of distributed generation systems, like wind turbines. Do net metering credits expire?
While net metering is more commonly associated with smaller-scale solar installations, it can still be relevant for utility-scale plants in certain contexts. In regions where net metering policies apply, excess electricity generated by the solar plant may be credited against future consumption or sold back to the grid.
Having a solar battery doesn't mean you stop using net metering. Instead, it helps you have more power over your energy consumption. The process is pretty simple: without a battery, the surplus solar energy you create during the day that you don't use gets sent back to the grid. In return, you get net metering credits.
Net metering is like having the grid serve as a giant solar battery. But, if you install an "off-grid" solar panel system, you won't benefit from net metering. An off-grid solar system requires you to have your ownbatteries to keep the lights on once the sun goes down.
Virtual Net Metering Virtual net metering enables multiple users, such as tenants in an apartment building, to benefit from a shared solar energy system. Credits generated by the solar
