This is very striking to me. Does the power company get actual readings on your solar energy consumption, or is the tiering based on estimated solar usage?
- StillBored 8y agoI think they are metering the solar as well... https://austinenergy.com/wcm/connect/9c2d0f25-b56e-410a-93ee-04f25c5f00a9/res_vos_bill_sample_eflyer.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=mcHv0pD&CVID=mcHv0pD https://austinenergy.com/wcm/connect/9c2d0f25-b56e-410a-93ee...
