Any net metering scheme on a volume basis invariably results in subsidization between customer groups.

Customers with and without solar panels pay the same amount into the pot to pay for the infrastructure up to the meter. Allowing solar producers to net out of that pot results in that subsidization, (which is funny as one could argue they should pay more since they are using it up and down).

This is a similar example to the collapse of the RRO in Alberta.

Utility finance is a tricky thing.
