Net Billing Has Begun – Install a Rooftop PV System

The Net Billing program has officially started, allowing homeowners to install photovoltaic systems on their rooftops.

Net Billing is the new energy compensation scheme gradually replacing Net Metering.
In this model, the energy produced by your PV system and consumed on-site covers your daily needs,
while the surplus energy is sold to the grid at a price determined by the Regulatory Authority (RAE / DAPEEP).

  • Cover a significant share of your annual energy needs
  • Earn revenue from surplus generation
  • Contribute to grid stability and CO₂ emission reduction

Unlike Net Metering, where compensation is based on an energy balance (kWh vs kWh),
Net Billing operates through financial compensation, according to the value of the imported and exported electricity.

Net Billing marks the new era of energy autonomy and sustainable generation,
especially when combined with battery storage systems for even greater savings and independence.

The first step is to determine your annual energy consumption.
Your electricity bills show the meter readings — for example, by comparing the reading from September 2022 to September 2023,
the difference indicates your yearly kWh usage.
Make sure the period you compare represents a typical year of full equipment use.

Once the annual demand is known, we design a PV system that will generate the equivalent amount of energy,
ensuring a maximum offset of your consumption.

5 kW Net Metering Photovoltaic System

Let’s consider an example of a residence that consumes approximately 4,000 kWh/year for lighting, sockets, kitchen and water heating, and plans to install a heat pump with good-quality windows and insulation, adding another 3,000–3,500 kWh/year.

  • The total annual energy demand of the house is therefore around 7,000–7,500 kWh.

  • A 5 kW photovoltaic system can generate approximately 7,000–7,500 kWh per year, effectively covering the entire annual demand of the residence.

The trend today is energy independence.

As society shifts toward renewable energy sources, new possibilities have emerged that allow a residence to operate autonomously without burdening the Grid with its energy demands.

By installing battery storage, you gain support during emergency situations and the ability to fully utilize the solar energy produced during the daytime. At the same time, you help stabilize the Grid, since in the afternoon—when demand peaks—your home remains autonomous, powered directly by the batteries.

The benefits are significant both for you and for the wider system, as we maximize the use of clean, daytime solar energy.
