Michigan has adopted "true" net metering for solar-electric systems 20 kW and under.  Systems over 20 kW get a horrible deal, but residential systems (usually under 20 kW) have one of the best deals in the USA.  You can run your meter backwards when your solar electric system is generating more energy than your home is using, and get retail credit for every kilowatt-hour.  

Do YOU want to net meter in Michigan?

You need to fill out and send two documents to your utility company.

1) At the very end of this MPSC ruling is one document you will need:
MPSC Ruling standardizing interconnection and net metering applications

and

2) you will also need to fill out a parallel operating agreement, which you can obtain from your utility.
