Net metering explained (plain language)

How selling power back to the grid works, the current buyback rate, and the deadline that matters.

What net metering is

When your panels make more power than you use, the extra flows back into the grid and the utility credits you. At the current rate of Tk 10.50 per exported unit, those credits offset the units you draw at night.

The deadline

The current rate window is set to close on 28 February 2027. Systems commissioned before then lock in today's terms.

How to apply

Applications go through your utility (DESCO, DPDC or BPDB). Our paperwork add-on handles the forms for you.
