Anybody knows how frequently (or infrequently) we can switch rate schedules?
Once a year at most. They might let you change it back after a month after switching in case you realize that you made a mistake (I think SDG&E lets you do this, anyway).
I called the PG&E solar customer service (877-743-4114). The CSR told me if I switch to E6, I have to keep it for a full year. And it takes about 1 to 2 weeks (from time of call) to get the meter switched over.
I asked if it is possible for me to read the hourly usage data online (which I used to be able to do with the SmartMeter). The CSR told me this usage data is not available with E1 or E6 net metering (but apparently Ready2plugin has it).
