PV Gap

Ron Said:

How much energy have you sold back to power company with Solar Panels/Wind Turbines?

We Answered:

In the US the power company will only credit the extra power you generate and give it back when you need it. They don't actually give you any money for the extra power you make. If you make more than you use, the electric company gets to keep your extra power and sell it to somebody else.

What a scam!!!

I was all set to get a grid tied photovoltaic system. Then add solar panels until the whole south side of my roof was covered with solar panels thinking I was going to paid back every month until I found out they don't work that way.

In parts of Europe, people are making their own solar farms and selling the power to the electric company and making money.
