Bill, The refurbished utility meter is the lowest cost option that meets
the requirements of accuracy for RECs that I am aware of. Chris

CA wrenches,
I'm trying to (for the sake of my monetarily impaired
customers) figure out a less expensive way to meter/monitor small
enphase systems. One of my local utilities will allow me to just use
a remanufactured utility-grade meter (ala AEE) These meters are
inexpensive, robust and accurate but only display total production.
The Envoy retails for over $5 bills. Most of my customers are
not interested in checking their PV system on the internet, well not
after a couple weeks. I can't seem to find any requirement from
PG&E other than in Section 5.1 of the guidebook: " All systems
receiving an EPBB incentive must install a production meter accurate
to +- 5% of actual system output...." which is pretty vague.
plus the is no CSI incentive anymore.
Anybody have a suggestion that is different from the remanu
utility meter?....and possibly gives current wattage output, and is
"approved" by PG&E interconnection?
TIA
Bill
