HOW DOES NET METERING WORK?
A new digital two-way net meter will replace the standard one-way electricity meter at your home. The meter will have 2 registers – ‘import’ and ‘export’ that measures power consumed and power produced by you solar system.

Once your solar system is installed, the CEB/LECO will visit your house and install a new net meter. Every month as is common practice when you are a CEB conventional power consumer, your electricity meter will be read, and both import and export readings will be noted.

If in a month, the consumer exported more than imported, the excess units will be credited to following months’ bill. If the consumer utilises more than the normal consumption/production, then the consumer will pay only for excess units used starting at the lowest tariff block.

No cash payment will be made for excess exported units, instead the CEB will carry over your excess units to the following months usage, thereby allocating you credit that can be used for the next months utility consumption. This can be carried forward up to 20years. 

HOW DO I APPLY TO CEB OR LECO TO GET THE CONNECTION? 
Absolute Power will fill in all documentation and submit the forms. However, we will need you to fill in the section on your personal and connection account details. You will be required to visit the area CEB or LECO office to sign the contract with them. Here, CEB/LECO agrees to ‘purchase’ your excess production for 20 years. 

DO I HAVE TO PAY CEB OR LECO FOR THIS NEW METER AND CONNECTION?
All charges for the meter and connection will be borne by Absolute Power.

WHO PAYS FOR THE INSURANCE?
Absolute Power will pay for the insurance for the system for the first years from Janashakthi. The policy will be under Absolute Power with specific mention of your name and address. This will take off the burden from you in case of any eventuality and Absolute Power will replace or repair your system free of charge and will interact with Janashakthi as needed. You will not have to burden yourselves with any claims.
