Shouldn't they be paying you when you produce more than you use? Are you feeding back into the system, or storing in batteries?

It's net metering, no batteries. The solar dumps into the grid and rolls my meter backwards. The house still always draws from the grid and rolls the meter forwards. At the end of the year they cash out any credits on the account and pay me for them at roughly half the rate I pay them per kwh.

I see. I wish we could get solar here and have it be worth the installation expense, but it is heavily overcast for most of the year.
