The solar panels went online January 29th, 2010, so the effect will be seen after that.
I'm happy with the results, and my October bill is set to be about $23.
What I like What I like especially is how I have been able to cut my "On Peak" usage (the most expensive kind) down to nothing since March. That $15K number you see in April is just because they had to manually figure that because their automated system cannot yet deal with NEGATIVE readings from the meter going backward. That total was in there before it was manually adjusted, and the human who did that just didn't correct the huge number. I had no payment for April, and in fact, they paid me $22.04 for solar power generation which exceeded my usage by quite a bit. They do that at the end of every April. If my estimates hold, I will be paid about $55 for next April.especially is how I have been able to cut my "On Peak" usage (the most expensive kind) down to nothing since March.
