      <h2>FAQs</h2>
        <details><summary><strong>What is a net meter?</strong></summary><p>A bi‑directional “green” meter that records both import (from grid) and export (to grid) so your bill reflects the net energy or export credits per DISCO rules.</p></details>
        <details><summary><strong>Do I still pay a bill?</strong></summary><p>Yes. Even with high export, you may see minimum charges, taxes or fees from your DISCO.</p></details>
        <details><summary><strong>Will export credits carry forward?</strong></summary><p>Depends on current policy and DISCO. Check our <a href="/policy/nepra-net-metering-2025">policy explainer</a>.</p></details>
        <details><summary><strong>What size system should I choose?</strong></summary><p>Generally right‑size for your daytime load and roof space. Use the calculators above, then confirm with a professional survey.</p></details>
