Customers who generate their own electricity will have a net meter installed that will measure the amount of energy the customer purchases from SMECO (when the customer’s system is not producing enough to meet the customer’s need) and the amount of energy the customer sells to SMECO (when the system is producing more than enough to meet the customer’s need). Customers are billed for the difference—purchases minus sales. SMECO’s meter doesn’t measure how much energy you produced and used during the month.
