For existing solar customers in California with either NEM 1 or NEM 2 rate structures, you can now add solar without losing your NEM status.
A non-exporting solar system allows you to add additional solar panels where the energy generated from these panels does not flow back to the utility grid. Instead, the non-exporting power goes directly to your house and can be stored in batteries for later use.
Benefits of a Non-Exporting System:
If you installed a solar system five or more years ago, you may find your energy needs have increased. You may now own an electric vehicle, or energy-intensive appliances like hot tubs, or simply increased household consumption. The original solar system no longer meets your needs, which you see in high true-up bills.
Instead of transitioning to NEM 3 rate structure, you can now utilize a non-exporting system. This will allow you to add solar capacity to generate the electricity you need to power your home.
Installing a non-exporting system requires advanced technical expertise including inverter configurations, battery integration, and utility approval.
