Re: Free Photovoltaic System from my electric company!! (Reply #1)
Wow! thats great. Congraulations, its not everyday that this happens. Theres only one thing that might even come close to watching the meter spin backwards and thats occasionally getting to watch a meter reader go round and round my house scratching his head looking for the electric meter and there isn't one.
Lets see thats 12 at 165 watts for about 4 hours a day averaged over the year. That would come too about 8 kilowatthours a day. More in the summer, less in the winter of course. I would say around 60% of the year for a grand total of 1,700 kilowatthours a year at $0.08 a kilowatthour (national average) thats $136.00 a year! Thats like a free month of electricity every year.
Hey, I wonder if the power company here would pay me that much a year as long as I dont every hook up to there coal fired generators or nuclear power plant.
There's a web site where you can see just how much pollution that PV array will offset.

How is that new free system doing? Can you see a big difference in your monthly electric bill?
I checked with, what would be my local utility power company about them paying me the equivilent of one months bill each year, "we don't do that". He actually had more to say but at that point all I heard was "blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah. Go figure.
