How much of your total consumption is offset by solar?
What happens if you produce a lot during the summer peak hour of 12-9pm, do you get to carry it forward and offset your winter peaks (6-10am/pm)?
Our solar offsets around 50% of our usage. I don't have a full bill yet, but based on the last partial ToU one, I think each kWh I send during peak hours, is used to offset a peak kWh I use. Because of my relative low offset, I use this peak credit within the same bill. The language seems to suggest that you can bank peak hour kWh's and regular kWh's separately, and they will apply them where appropriate.
The bill is still quite confused, it shows me at the RS-1 rate still, but it includes this at the end:
- 0 kWh were sent to the grid this period. 0 kWh were applied to reduce your bill. Your kWh reserve increased by 0. The kWh in your reserve is 0
- Your kWh usage reflects 711 of renewable energy which includes 95 of on peak kWh. You have 0 remaining that may be applied on
your next bill.
