👉 The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) proposed modifying net metering in California and called it "Net Billing tariff."
âś… We know the benefits of net energy metering are impossible to count. But investor-owned utilities (IOUs) across the U.S. have been working to dismantle NEM and stifle competition.
Residential solar has grown over the last decade, making the benefits of lower electric bills and cleaner energy significantly more accessible.
❌ However, policies for residential solar, like net metering, have primarily focused on supporting solar for homeowners, leaving renters and other potential solar customers limited options.
That's why virtual net metering has excellent potential to make cost-effective solar energy accessible to other parts of the residential market

has grown dramatically over the last decade. During the previous ten years, the annual growth in residential solar has averaged 68%. Developing policies and financing approaches have primarily driven this growth.
To date, however, policies for residential solar, like , have predominantly focused on supporting solar for homeowners, leaving renters and other potential customers limited options for accessing the benefits of solar energy. And for solar contractors, this means a large portion of the potential market has been closed.
Virtual net metering, which extends net metering to customers who do not share the same meter as a , has excellent potential to make cost-effective accessible to other portions of the residential market

are made of semiconductor material (Silicon) which absorbs solar light. But silicon by itself is an inferior conductor. Therefore to increase conductivity, impurities are added to the silicon structure.

Household energy needs VS Solar energy production
Let's have a close look. This curve shows you the energy production of our PV system (on the X-axis, we have the time of the day, and on the Y-axis, we have energy production measured in units of power kilowatt-hour).
At night the energy production is zero. But in the morning, modules start to generate power. Then around midday, when the sun hits, the solar modules produce the maximum amount of energy. This is the point of the 90-degree angle between the solar modules and the position of the sun. Right after this peak, the sun starts to come down, and the production of energy decreases directly proportional to the sun's position.
We can compare his curve to the daily household energy needs and see where there is the lack of solar power or its overcoming.

What are peak sun hours (PSH), and how to calculate them for your location? Firstly PSH is the number of hours in 1 day, during which the solar irradiance is consistently 1000W/m2 (the highest production of the solar array).

PSH is a crucial factor in determining the number of modules you will need to satisfy your property's energy needs.

In the following picture, you can see the measure of PSH across the US.
Remember, solar irradiation and PSH will vary from place to place depending on proximity to the equator, clouds, geography, and other atmospheric conditions.

How Amazon closed the retail industry. Is Solar next?

If Amazon dominated the retail market before the pandemic began, there’s good reason to believe it’ll emerge from the crisis even stronger. Under orders to stay home, millions of Americans have turned to online marketplaces like Amazon to order much-needed essentials. Taken together, the retail industry’s troubles have generated concern about what the competitive landscape will look like when the pandemic subsides. Aside from Walmart, Target, and Costco, will anyone else be left to compete with Amazon?

But what about the industry? If you think going from house to house and offering your services is a great idea, you’ve already been apart from a competitive environment. Only technologies that allow stepping aside from usual workflow and business models will lead you to the future. Otherwise, the future won’t exist for your company.
