Hi Sam. 

So to be clear. A zero sell is still required to get a net metered agreement?

The utility here in Montana requires any small-generator facility to have an interconnection agreement with them.  A standard net-metered agreement is called a Level 1 Agreement and a non-export system falls into their Level 3 Agreement.  The relevant text from that agreement is as follows:

The... requirements are designed to ensure that the Small Generator Facility... are designed to prevent back-feeding of power from the generating facility to the utility grid during power outages, and to match... power characteristics with respect to voltage and frequency. 

Cheers,
Sam
