Net Usage and Delivered and Sent Data Views for Solar Customers in Data Browser

Residential solar customers on net metering rates can access net usage electricity data as well as delivered and sent electricity data in the Data Browser. The net usage data is located under the Net tab, which appears below the date range. The delivered and sent data is located under the Delivered + Sent tab. “Delivered” refers to energy delivered to the customer's premise, whereas “sent” refers to energy the customer’s solar generation sent to the energy grid. Access to both usage insights within Data Browser provides customers with a better understanding of their energy use, and allows them to make more informed energy-saving decisions.
