This bidirectional energy meter or net meter is essential as it can measure both energy import from the grid to the customer and energy export from the customer to the grid separately.
In essence net metering is like having the grid serve as a giant solar battery.
In most cases staying connected to the electric grid is your best option while home solar battery systems can account for hour by hour variations in solar electricity.
If you install an energy storage system to take your home off the grid you won t have access to the benefits of net metering.
