Honestly, Net Metering is wrong. It was "easy" back when there was little solar. In Texas, you have two rates on your bill, generation and delivery. Most solar plans will reimburse generation, but not delivery. There are a few companies doing regular net-metering, but usually your base rate is extremely high.

My plan will reimburse nothing, which is why I use a battery system to net-meter myself.
