■ Outsmart the utility, by replacing natural gas appliances!
□ Avoid non-bypassable charges, taxes, fees and Minimum Bill penalties that would normally occur for months of overproduction.
□ Get a larger utility baseline allowance discount for electric Heat Pump Water Heating.
• Add and store Thermal Energy when utility rates are lowest and when solar production is in excess of loads.
• Cool / Dehumidify interior room(s).
• If adding more solar for HPWH, then during a utility blackout, with a battery there is extended autonomy.
□ Gain usable conditioned space in the home, currently valued at $700-$2,000/sq ft in San Diego, when replacing a gas furnace and removing ductwork, in exchange for a heat pump air-conditioner/heater.
□ Reduce air pollutants and carcinogens, indoors and around the house.
□ Reduce fire risk.
Once you have installed solar power and have a Net Energy Metering agreement with the utility, you may soon discover that it is advantageous to schedule loads during peak sun hours. This is because the utility charges a “loan fee” for each kWh of power used from the utility that is later replaced with solar power. Utility Cost Savings is highest when consuming solar power as it is produced or storing it in a battery for consumption during peak utility rates, rather than sending it back to the utility for credit.
