Net metering allows you to earn credits for excess electricity your solar panels generate and send to the grid. These credits offset your energy costs when your solar system isn't producing enough power, helping you reduce your overall electricity bill.
You are guaranteed this current version of net metering for the lifetime of your system (defined, under net metering regulations, as 30 years from the date the solar installation received permission to operate). That means you will continue to have this full benefit on all three sections of your bill.
Net metering currently gives 1:1 per kilowatt-hour credits on these parts of your electric bills: Supply, Delivery and taxes and fees.
If you install solar panels after Jan. 1, 2025: Net metering credits will be applied to the Supply section of your bill, rather than all three sections.
This new system means customers after 2025 will receive a larger benefit upfront, with a reduced net metering benefit throughout the lifetime of the system.
