Net Metering with Self consumption

[Michalis Angeli]

I would like to ask, if the option Self-Consumption refers to Net Metering Sytems, with self consumption ??

Dear Michalis Angeli,

I don't know the Net Metering Systems.

In the option Self-Consumption, you must use a load profile. You can visualise some example in the folder : \PVsyst7.0_Data\Templates

The template is a CSV file and follows a precise pattern:

If you have at least hourly values, you can use it in the simulation.

Net metering is an electricity billing mechanism that allows consumers who generate some or all of their own electricity to use that electricity anytime, instead of when it is generated. 

 

If i help you.

 

Thanks

Dear Michalis Angeli,

Thank you for your explanation.

In PVsyst, the option self-consumption allows you to simulate the ratio between what you can consume regarding your load profile and what you inject in the grid.
