Because solar energy is an intermittent resource you may not be using the power when it is generated, and net-metering allows you to receive full value for the electricity you produce without installing and investing in a battery storage system.

Net-metering is important because solar energy is intermittent. The power being generated by the PV system may not be used at that time. Net metering allows full value for the electricity produced regardless time of consumption. Net-metering directly affects the economics and payback period for the investment in the system. Net-metering also provides an easily managed means for billing electrical use and crediting electrical production.
