Selling Surplus Energy: Net Metering.
Your solar system isn't just about saving—it's about earning. With a bi-directional Net Meter, your extra electricity is exported back to the grid, and you get credited for every unit sent.
Export Credits
When your generation exceeds consumption, power flows back to the DISCOM and credits your next bill.
Bill Offsetting
The exported units are subtracted from imported units, potentially bringing your bill to zero.
The Export Cycle
Solar Generation
Panels convert sunlight into DC electricity.
Inverter Conversion
DC is converted to AC for home/factory use.
Primary Consumption
Appliances use solar power first automatically.
Grid Export
Surplus units are sent to the grid via Net Meter.
