FIRST ELECTRIC BILL!!!!!

Here's the details:

The PV (solar electric) system was installed on March 18th and put into service (turned on) on the 19th. We just received our first bill since then. From March 20th to April 9th, we were charged $4.59 for electricity, although the kWh listing on the bill reads 0 (so we are guessing since we are a construction site, they came out and read the meter at one point in the past and it was so low, that they use that figure for several months so that they don't have to take the time to come out and read such a low meter).

Then from April 9th to May 8th, we have the same $4.59 charge. Our total CREDIT accumulated (money for solar electric we produced) was $40.50!! Once we get moved into the house, I'll post more electric usage and production stats. That $40 credit sure looks nice now though.
