Explanation:
Net metering' is a policy mechanism that promotes the production and use of solar energy by households or consumers. It allows individuals or businesses with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to generate their own electricity and feed any excess electricity back into the grid. The electricity generated by the solar panels is measured using a bi-directional meter, which tracks both the electricity consumed from the grid and the surplus electricity supplied to the grid. Consumers receive credits or compensation for the excess electricity they contribute to the grid, which can be used to offset their electricity bills.
