--- Quote ---A lot of homes in California use solar panels and windmills to power their homes and heat their water (using those new efficient coil based water heaters) and make enough energy to actually reverse the direction of their power meter and get money BACK for power they sell to the electric company.

But sadly, the power companies don't GIVE you money if you give them lawts of energy, they just make the bill say "omg zero dullers"

Throbblefoot:
Actually, some cities sell power back into the state grid and then use the proceeds to defray the costs of powering their own, city-wide grid. Alameda, CA is an example. On some levels, power sell-back is profitable.
