- Home Solar Panels And Net Metering
By: Anna Williams | - One way to use solar power to save money is through the use of a practice called "Net Metering."
What is Net Metering?
Net Metering is a practice where consumers "sell" energy back to the electrical companies. They do this when they have some form of renewable energy facility installed in their home and a surplus is thus created.
A good example of net metering would be the case of someone who owns solar panels or owns a wind turbine. If his solar pane ...
