$51 PG&E bill but true-up isn't until December?

[sorka]

Just got a $51 bill (B&W bill should be available in about 5 days). Normally it's just the $10 / month for minimum billable. Now I did just add 4.8 kw to my existing 8.16 kw system and it was just PTOed on 7/28, but I have $300+ net cumulative credit.

Did PG&E just reset my true-up and wipe out my net credit???

Is it possible, by adding 50% more production, it changed your NEM or the old EV-A rate?

Please post the section of the bill with this.

If you made a change and got a PTO then you just reset your true up date.

Does that mean my substantial net credit has been eliminated?

I'd bet money that it went poof

So yup. True-up was reset. I don't have the B&W bill yet, but the amount just about adds up NBCs accrued to from December 20th to July 28th minus the minimum billable is within 10 cents of that amount. On the plus side, July is a way better month for me to true-up than December.

why is July better than December? Either way it is 12 months

On a year average it works out, but that first bill you be higher if you owe winter consumption vs if you were even.

My true up 12 months is March - Feb. As you say, "12 months is 12 Months", but from a psychological point of view, in my case, I always start my year with a negative balance (the utility has a credit on my account) because March is when my production is greater than my usage.

So, for me, all year I have a credit at the utility, and pull from that credit in fall / winter. I like very much seeing a negative number most of the year with the utility, at least until it crosses over and my credit is gone, which happens in month 11 or 12. (I owed like $80 on my true up bill last year).

Its all the same at the end, but I like seeing "them owe me" most of the year, rather than "me owe them" most of the year.

My latest true up is supposed to be July. I usually get the "bill" like the 21st. Here is is now the next month and I have yet to see the July bill.
Is this normal when the month is the true up?

Were you moved to Pioneer? They moved me 60 days before my true-up without telling me and I did not get a bill for 90 days
