Long-term: How solar helps when you want a smaller National Grid bill

If your goal is to want a smaller National Grid bill permanently, rooftop solar is one of the most powerful solutions. Solar reduces the kilowatt-hours you buy from National Grid, and net-metering turns daytime production into bill credits. Adding a battery allows you to shift daytime solar to evening peaks — further cutting billed charges.
