Net Metering Battle

Solar Friends, The future of the solar industry in Washington is in jeopardy and the Washington Solar Energy Industry Association (WASEIA) is working hard to keep this vital source of carbon-free, renewable electricity viable and sustainable in our state. Sunergy Systems is a founding member of WASEIA and our Company President is a serving Board Member. We need your help! As many of you know, net metering is a key policy that makes solar financially viable.

What is Net Energy Metering?

Going solar offers homeowners many great benefits. One of the best—for those who can take advantage of it—is net metering (also called net energy metering). With net metering, homeowners get credited for the extra energy their solar system produces that is sent back to the electric grid.  Usually, you are credited monthly until the credits are trued up annually. Net metering means that homeowners can use their solar system to offset their home electricity consumption over the course of the year—high-producing months help to offset lower-producing times when more power must be drawn from the utility grid. In most cases, [...]
