Typically its not worthwhile to sell back to the utilities. If your paying about 10 cents a kwhr for electricity the electric co will only pay you about 2 cents per kwhr for what you produce.  Its depends on your utility regulation and all states  have different rules.
For a good source of information:home power magazine is excellent and also the american wind energy association at awea.org
