Separate the numbers
Identify the statement’s amount due now and its running solar balance, without treating them as the same thing.

A residential solar-bill second opinion
Have solar.
Still have
bill questions?
Understand what one PG&E statement shows, what it leaves unanswered, and what to ask next before buying more equipment.
A proposed five-household test for a specific billing situation.
The first test is deliberately narrow

What you would receive
An explanation you can use.
The review stays with the evidence in your statement. It does not turn one month into an annual diagnosis.
Explain the evidence
Describe the main bill drivers supported by that statement and clearly label what cannot be established.
Know what to ask next
Get two or three practical checks or questions, plus one written follow-up round about the same report.
Entirely fictional · No customer data
A small example.
Clear limits.
“My solar app says I made 600 kWh. Why can I still owe money?”
Generation and energy exchanged with the grid are different measures. In this invented example, a peak-period charge outweighs an off-peak export credit.
This demonstrates the explanation format. It is not a customer result, a tariff quote or evidence of savings.

This is not the amount due now or a forecast of final True-Up. Other bill items are excluded. These are invented rates, not current PG&E rates.
What this example can and cannot tell us
The source example uses one PG&E NEM2 meter with PG&E generation and delivery, no battery, and matching statement and production dates.
A real review reads the amount-due and running-balance lines separately. This partial example cannot determine either amount, annual performance, equipment condition or whether a battery would pay back.
A next check is to find those separate lines on the actual statement. Questions about usage timing need interval usage and matched production evidence.

Use example answers only. There are no identity, account or bill fields. These selections stay in this page’s memory and reset on reload.
A defined scope
A bill explanation.
Not a system diagnosis.
The pilot would explain one eligible statement. An optional production screenshot could add context; it would not prove system health.
Outside this pilot
- Annual performance or savings audits
- Battery payback, equipment sizing or electrical diagnosis
- Ongoing monitoring or rate-plan changes
- Utility dispute representation or repair work
- Commercial and industrial consulting
No savings guarantee or recommendation to buy more equipment is included.

Solar Savings Calculator
Estimates broad production and electricity-value potential from assumptions. It does not explain an actual bill or diagnose performance.

Solar Bill Second Opinion
Explains one eligible residential PG&E NEM2 statement, with next questions and one written follow-up round. Five households.
Existing · Paid
Virtual Solar Performance Assessment
Reviews a bill, monitoring screenshot and stated concern to explain available evidence and next steps. Its scope and pricing are arranged separately.
The existing calculator and assessment remain separate offers. The pilot price does not change inspection or assessment pricing.
Before any paid test opens
Terms and timing still need approval.
Final price, turnaround, follow-up window, cancellation and refund terms, and a private document-handling process must be agreed before bookings begin.
Free utility billing guidance may already answer your question. Free alternatives and the fictional sample should be available before anyone is asked to purchase.
No payment, document upload, outreach or customer-data collection is connected to this preview.
