The term net metering refers to the method
of accounting for a PV system's electricity production.
It is a policy that allows solar PV system owners to
receive the full value of the electricity that their
solar energy system produces. As the owner's PV system
produces electricity, the kilowatts are used first to
meet any electric requirements of that meter’s
load. If more electricity is produced from the PV system
than needed, the extra kilowatts are fed into the utility
grid.
