  • I agree. I have solar, in NH. I did not ever expect to get a $0 monthly bill, as I thought the ‘customer charge’ would never be covered by excess generation. But in our NEM plan, it is. As are delivery charges - because delivery charges are based on kWh consumed.

    But you know what, I’ll take it as it is. Because I get paid $0.25 on the dollar of what I generate on the roof. Indeed, for every four kWh I generate, I am paid for one.

    But in NH … We have essentially no state subsidies for solar. There sa $1000 max incentive. And it’s a lottery as we don’t generate enough tax revenue to give it to everyone that installs solar.

    May I also just say I firmly believe all electric utilities should be public, not private. I’m very insensitive to the suffering of the profits of private utilities that drag their feet approving interconnection applications and defer maintence of their grid while also holding tax payers hostage during emergencies.
