On-peak generation only offsets on-peak usage. The same goes for off-peak.

Is it true that only on-peak overgeneration can then credit on-credit
usage? IE, you dont geet to apply expensive kWh to cheap ones you use?
Or is it a kWh is a kWh? Or is the netting by price in and out?
It is unfortunate that we have such wild variance with location.
Our utility uses flat rates, no variation with time of day/week. Our
"net metering" deal used to be full credit for over production through
the one month billing period. You could use the grid as a free battery
through the billing period. Long term over production was bought for
cash once a year at $.04-$.05.
They changed the deal about a year ago, grandfathering the older deal
customers. New deal is no free battery service. All energy from grid
is billed at $.09-$.10. All produced energy is credited at ~$.06. I've
been using the PowerWall to completely avoid grid energy costs. Though
that $.03-$.04 spread will never pay for the PowerWall. The new deal
allows me to pay the $22.50 connection fee monthly with the credit from
production; the old deal had me paying monthly for the connection fee
before getting the annual credit.
