Why do I still have a true-up bill & how do I fix it?
March 22, 2021
Are you wondering why you are getting a True-Up bill? Here is how to fix it!
An annual True-Up bill is a statement solar consumers receive after a 12-month billing period with their utility company. The True-Up reconciles all the cumulative energy charges plus credits and compensation for an entire 12-month period.
If you are receiving a True-Up bill, it's likely you are using more power than your solar panels are generating throughout the year. This may be for a number of reasons.
Lifestyle changes and usage can increase over time. Whether it be more members of the household working from home, adding additional appliances, purchasing an electric vehicle, or maybe just running the air more as temperatures rise. It could also simply be that your system is a bit older or that electric rates have gone up over the years.
The first thing you want to do is make sure that your system is producing. If your monitoring system is not reporting production, you may want to contact your current solar company. If you don't have a monitoring system set up, a licensed solar contractor like Guyou construction can also help install one or troubleshoot any issues with your current system.
You may be eligible for additional solar panels as well. Solar panels typically produce for at least 25 years but its worth considering adding more. New technology continues to make panels more and more efficient.
Take advantage of the extended 26% federal tax credit to expand your current system and offset the cost.
