Answer to Question 1

A net meter is a utility meter that can measure the difference between the power coming from or going back to the grid. For a homeowner with a renewable energy system, it automatically credits the homeowner with any excess power sent to the grid.

Answer to Question 2

A substation is a network of switching equipment, control equipment and transformers that are an integral part of the transmission system. A transmission substation provides the interface between the generating stations to the transmission

lines and a distribution substation provides the interface between the transmission lines to the users.
