“Changes to Pepco solar billing?”

“Dear PoPville,

We’ve had solar panels on our roof for several years. In months when we generated more electricity than we used, our bills always had a negative dollar amount and the credit balance could be used to cover the monthly base charges. This meant we usually only had a bill around Dec/Jan/Feb, and $0 bills the rest of the year.

The last few months however I’ve noticed a change.

Now Pepco tracks the excess energy in kWh rather than dollars, and despite having a negative kWh balance we owe the approx. $20 in base charges each month.

It’s not a big deal–we’ll eventually use the kWh credits–but it seems strange (though predictable) that we didn’t receive any communication about the change from Pepco. I can’t find anything about it on their site or news stories (would this have required government approval?). Just curious if anyone knows the scoop.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
