In 2024, it will remain possible to net meter all the electricity you return, which is beneficial for households with solar panels. Net metering means that the electricity you generate but do not use yourself is fed back into the electricity grid. This returned electricity is then offset against the electricity you draw from the grid. When you produce more electricity than you consume, the surplus electricity is settled on an annual basis. This system offers financial benefits and encourages the self-generation of sustainable energy, enabling households to contribute to a more sustainable energy supply while simultaneously saving on their energy costs. Retaining the possibility to net meter thus supports both environmental awareness and financial benefits for households with solar panels.
There are several reasons why net metering can be beneficial:
Financial benefits: Since electricity prices are often higher than the compensation you receive for returned electricity, net metering offers financial benefits. This allows you to save on your energy bill.
Self-sufficient: With solar panels, you can generate part of your own electricity, which reduces dependency on the regular electricity grid. It contributes to a more sustainable and self-sufficient energy supply.
Environmental awareness: Using solar energy reduces dependence on fossil fuels and contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions, which is beneficial for the environment.
