Net metering credits exported units 1:1 against consumption, gross metering sells all generation to the utility at a fixed feed-in tariff, and net billing pays for surplus exports at a rate below the retail tariff. Under net billing and gross metering, self-consumption during daylight hours matters far more to the economics than raw system size.
