Net metering, also known as net energy metering, is a Solar incentive that allows you to store energy in the electric grid. With net metering, you can receive utility bill credits. It is basically a billing process in which the home solar system is connected to the grid through a net meter. The energy generated is fed to the utility grid from which the energy requirements of the house are fulfilled. At the end of the billing cycle, the customer only has to pay for the difference between the consumed units of electricity and the units generated.

What are the reasons for considering net-metering? Why should you invest your hard earned money in its installation? Below are some simplified facts about net-metering that are sure to convince you to choose this revolutionary system

It’s an easy procedure

The process of net metering involves the analysis of the strength, availability of shadow-free area and suitability of your roof. Then the professionals install the home solar system on your roof. Solar panels are a major part of the home solar system and are made of photovoltaic cells. These are connected to the net-meter through an inverter. They calculate the units of electricity produced and feed the electricity to the grid.

Saves in electricity bills

The electricity for the consumption of the house comes from the grid directly. If the consumption of energy by the house is equal to the produced electricity, then there is no need to pay. But if the consumption exceeds the production, the consumer has to pay for the extra electricity.

Boosts the property value

In addition to being low-maintenance, home Solar Systems help in increasing the value of your house. It has been observed that houses that have solar systems installed have a high market value and are sold at a rate much higher. These residential solar systems account for profitable investment.

Prevails for a long time

Residential solar systems have a life cycle of over 25 years! They are not prone to wear and tear, can withstand harsh weather, strong winds and rains. They don’t need much maintenance and are easy to clean.

Ujaas home is one of the top solar companies in India, therefore you can entrust them with your leap towards a greener planet. Their professionals do all the research, planning and execution efficiently so that you don’t have sweat about your home solar system in the future.

Helps the government goals

Installing net-meters helps the ‘smart city’ plan of the government and is, therefore, is highly supported and encouraged by the government. As of now, most Indian states have net-metering policies and the remaining states are working on it.

Makes the planet better

Solar energy is the most favourable and suitable technology for decentralised and distributed generation of electricity. The best alternative to using non-renewable resources like coal, crude oil and fossils is solar energy which is renewable and costs nothing. There are no demerits to these home solar systems.

Using this method of smoke-free, noise-free electricity generation also decreases your carbon footprint. Furthermore, it encourages people around you to choose green sources of energy too, thus creating a nexus that is sure to result in making the condition of our planet better.
