Here in New Mexico, when I connected our 6.6kW PV array to the grid, I had the choice of net metering or not. But there was a wrinkle: if I chose net metering, the power company could use our installation to count towards its own state and federally mandated shift toward renewables.
Being a cantakerous old geezer, I said hell no, and opted for no net metering. Works out OK from my perspective: still pay small electricity bills for the excess that we need for 3-4 months a year, and just the $7.70 connection charge for the rest.
