As electricity prices continue to rise in Pakistan, more homeowners and businesses are turning to solar power. But did you know you can earn credits for the excess energy your solar system generates? That’s the power of Net Metering Solutions — a smart way to reduce your electricity bills while contributing clean energy to the grid.

🔌 What Is Net Metering?

Net metering is a billing mechanism that allows you to connect your solar system to the national grid. When your system produces more electricity than you use, the surplus power is sent to the grid. In return, your electricity provider gives you credits, reducing the cost of the electricity you consume at night or on cloudy days.

For example:
If you consume 600 units of electricity in a month and your solar system exports 400 units, you’ll only be billed for the net 200 units. It’s a win-win for your wallet and the environment.

📈 Benefits of Net Metering

• Lower Electricity Bills
  Offset high energy costs with credits earned from excess solar power.

• Faster Payback Period
  With the ability to sell back power, you recover your solar investment more quickly.

• Reliable Energy Source
  Pairing your system with batteries and grid support gives you energy round-the-clock.

• Environmental Impact
  Reduce your carbon footprint by generating clean, renewable energy.

📝 Who Can Apply for Net Metering?

To be eligible for net metering in Pakistan, you must meet a few simple conditions:

• Have a three-phase connection with your utility company (e.g., IESCO, LESCO, KE, etc.)

• Install a solar PV system of 1 kW to 1 MW capacity

• Use equipment and installation from an AEDB-certified vendor

• Submit a formal application to your local distribution company (DISCO)

Once approved, a bi-directional meter is installed that tracks both consumption and export.
