That's the ACC, but what about the payback calculator?
Do you think that the export compensation rate will be this table on the Dashboard tab (divided be 1000 of course)?

Yeah, I guess that table is pretty close to what pictures/graphs I pasted. My graphs were just the "zone 12 rates" from the file that has the table you pasted.
I have my annual hourly net energy consumption data tracked by my Emporia Vue over the 12 months in 2022 . This is just the core home loads, excluding the AC subpanel and EVSE. About 35% of my usage could have been offset by my solar (no ESS). The remaining would have to come from the grid. I know I'm a sample size of 1, but that's all the data I have.
TOU rates make this really messy, but the value of the 35% energy demand would have out to be about $0.27 per kWh if it came from the grid instead of solar. (I'm with MCE and shoulder EV2A starts at 3pm)
The whole malarkey with the step-down on ACC rates, NBCs, and what the heck other stuff is nutso. But since the CPUC assumes the average solar-only system in their model is 3.78 kWp-AC, I'm having a really tough time coming to the conclusion that such a solar system could result in average bill savings of $1,230 for a home if the average demand pattern is anything like my home (excluding the AC and EVSE).
The only way I can arrive at the CPUC's conclusion would be to assume a home were to demand a ton of energy from 9am to 4pm. But the home installs an undersized solar array that maxes out at 3.78 kWp-AC. Thus, the vast majority of that small solar array could be used to power home loads (reduce home demand across the meter). Then I could see the ~6,000 kWh being produced by a 3.78 kWp-AC system being worth $1,230 per year (or about $0.20 per kWh produced).
