Net Metering Broken Down
Each kWh of unused solar generation sent to the grid offsets the cost of drawing a kWh at a later time eg. at night or on a cloudy day. RMP does let you use excess credit after covering your bill to offset the cost of future bills but they do not credit your account if at the end of the billing cycle you still have credit, it just disappears.
