Was about to sign the solar contract with Tesla for that 4.08kw system, read a bunch of docs, it seems there will be a 10$ fixed cost for each month, and more importantly, my current monthly bill is around 60-70, use 300-350 kwh, 0,21 per kwh. from the formula this 4.08kw system will produce 500-600 kwh per month so it is over sized. and 4.08 is the smallest size that the vendor provided.
I may use more power later but it is not yet decided.
my question is, is my below understanding correct?
"for the NEM 2.0, it seems I will be forced into TOU plan where the produce will normally in higher bucket $ value and the major consumption at night will be in lower $ value, so may be it is even more negative? but that negative is not paid out in $ value, instead, it will be adjust with the rate that 2-3 cents [ which I feel super unfair as right now it is 20-30 cents ] make it less financially make sense?"
Also it seems you do not need to cash out the credit but just store the credit there and use later [ if in the future we purchase EV ], but the SCE do not give any examples on how this work and I coudn't find useful info regarding this.
Please help me understand how the NEM 2.0 works and give me advice on should i stick with the solar plan or just move on [ i perhaps lost 100$ initial fees ]. Thanks
