Well, it's been over 3 months since I first tied my inverter to the grid and my solar panels started producing electricity.
With my net-meter, I get a 1 for 1 credit for all excess electricity I make. It has not been sunny enough to roll my meter all the way back to zero. Over the past 3 months, I've used 524KWH more than I have produced.
In December (the darkest month of the year), my usage exceeded production by 310KWH.
In January, I exceeded by 110 KWH.
In February, so far I have a surplus of 67KWH.
My meter got as high as 590 KWH but over the past 4 weeks is making its way back down. And the days are only getting longer.

Though I am months away from actually making more than I use, it's looking like I will have an excess of nearly 100KWH/month on average. This will come in handy to reduce my gasoline consumption when my number comes up on the Nissan Leaf Electric car waiting list.
