Newest elect bill
Posted: Sat Jan 30, 2010 4:02 pm
We got our first "official" (finally recoginized by Edison for having solar) electric bill, it was just $1.27 for "service charges" They keep track of actual usage and we will get billed at the end of the year.
The panels were not working for over half of last month due to the meter being wired backwards, which I dont understand because it was working and producing electricity for the previous 2 months (until Edison came and checked it out and appvoved the installation). Even at that our usage went from 64kwh a day to 33kwh a day.
When the solar company came to fix it the technician did not understand it either, but he said our system was producing a lot more then other systems he has seen. So next month when we are officially on a full month of just solar service, we will see what it is.
