Solar Savings with Ultra Low Overnight Rate

In a previous post, I talked about switching our electricity rates from a tiered rate schedule to an Ultra Low Overnight (ULO) rate schedule. The latter rate schedule effectively means we pay a third less when using electricity from 11pm to 7am.

I have received a full month’s invoice while on the ULO rate. Below is a comparison with the previous year.

Compare 2023 vs 2024 Invoices

The above is a clear depiction of the resulting differences. We are able to get way more credits using the ULO rates. I call this a huge success, especially since we had a few hot days with the air conditioning running. Let us see how the remaining months will add to our credits.
