Is a billing mechanism used by utilities to measure only the net energy consumed by the customers each month, this means that homes or businesses that used solar energy will only pay the energy they spend and its owners will be credit for it.
In order to know how much is your net energy, you should obtain the difference between the energy produced by your solar energy system and the energy consumed in a monthly billing period.
