What are NEM charges on Sdge?

1. How Do I Read My SDG&E Bill Once My Solar Panels Are Interconnected? Once your home solar system is working, SDG&E will measure the difference between the number of kilowatt-hours you generate and the amount of electricity you consume from the grid. This difference is called Net Energy Metering or NEM.

What is nem balance?

Your NEM balance refers to the annual True-Up Energy statement in which you pay all of your NEM cumulative fees. Through saving credits and reducing your own electricity consumption, you can mitigate this balance.

What is net metering Sdge?

With Net Energy Metering, if you generate more than you use, SDG&E will give you credit and then put the energy on the grid for everyone else to use. Then when it’s nighttime or a cloudy day and your system can’t produce all the energy you need, we’ll apply those credits to the energy you purchase from us.

Why is my NEM bill so high?

If applied, the Surcharge indicates that you are using significantly more energy than you generated. The High Usage Surcharge reflected on your monthly bill is not paid until your Annual True-Up. If you have NEM credits to offset the Surcharge, you may not owe anything.

How does NEM true-up work?

The True-Up Statement reconciles all the cumulative energy charges, credits and any compensation for the entire 12-month billing cycle. If you have a balance due after all charges and credits are reconciled, that amount will appear on the last PG&E bill of your 12 month billing cycle.

How do NEM credits work?

When your panels produce more energy than you can use over the course of one month, you will receive bill credits on your utility bill that can be used in future months. However, if you have excess credits remaining after a 12 month period, you are credited for the extra kilowatt-hours at a lower, wholesale rate.

Why is my solar true-up so high?

If you have a larger than expected true-up bill you are not producing enough electricity to maximize you savings. Consider working with a solar energy sales consultant to evaluate the amount of additional solar your home might need in order to offset the remaining usage currently being supplied by the utility grid.
