December Electric Bill with Solar Panels

What does my electric bill come to in the winter when I have solar panels? Find out as we open my bill live on camera!

This month, we used 651 kWHs more electricity than we produced. That amount of electricity was imported from the power company. A report from my solar software for the same time period lists 337 kWh produced.
That mean we produced only about a third of our total energy this month.
Total energy use was 988 kWh, or roughly the same as the monthly AVERAGE U.S. home.

Although it was a terrible month for production, and an above average month for energy use, our bill was still only $34.11, inclusive of fees. That means that our cost of electricity (INCLUDING FEES) per kilowatt-hour was 5.2 cents! That’s LESS than our Off-Peak Rate!

This was made possible by exporting solar energy during the day at high prices and consuming electricity at night (including charging electric cars) at low prices.
