I don’t believe they do. They pay on the Net draw from the grid.
So during the day let’s say the system produces let’s say the system produces 5kwh extra beyond what was used. Then at night when the solar system is producing 0 thr home owner uses 3kwh.
So on a net basis they sell 2kwh to the grid and pay no distribution. On a non-net basis they would pay distribution on 3 kWh.
So they only pay distribution on the difference between what they produce and what they use rather than on each kWh drawn from the grid.
