California homeowner under NEM 3.0 reports first negative PG&E bill
Original: California homeowner on NEM 3.0 gets first negative PG&E bill, thanks to August battery exports
A California homeowner on the state's NEM 3.0 solar billing plan says they received their first negative PG&E bill, crediting battery exports during August for pushing more power back to the grid than their household used. The case is being cited as an example of how storage can offset the reduced export credits introduced under the state's net energy metering overhaul.
Why now: Homeowners with solar are scrutinizing how NEM 3.0 affects bills and whether batteries can make the new rules financially workable
