Doesn’t this only affect those who sell back to the grid?

What if you just forego the pennies that you would get for overproduction?

I’m not sure, in some locales you are not permitted to have solar unless it is co=generation and goes onto the grid. In other you can have a stand-alone or a separate system that uses additional wiring that doesn’t connect to the wires connected to the Electric power Company.

Overproduction is not permitted for residential net metering in NC, as I understand it. “Net zero” is the best you can achieve, meaning the cost of electricity used overnight is completely offset by excess solar generated during the day. There is a separate set of rules for production of electricity to sell back to the utility as well as a different rate.
