View All CalculatorsSell excess solar energy back to the grid at retail rates with Pennsylvania net metering.
Net metering allows solar system owners to export excess electricity to the grid and receive credits at the full retail rate. When your system produces more than you consume — typically during sunny midday hours — your meter runs backward, and those credits offset your consumption during evening and nighttime hours.
Excess production flows to the grid and earns credits at the full retail electricity rate — effectively using the utility grid as a free battery.
Unused credits roll forward month to month. Build up credits during sunny summer months and use them during shorter winter days.
At year-end, any remaining excess credits are compensated at the utility's avoided cost rate. System sizing targets annual net-zero production.
Both major NEPA utilities participate in PA net metering. Solar Mason handles the interconnection application and meter upgrade coordination.
