Energy facts for Canoga Park homes on LADWP
How solar works on Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP)
LADWP is a city-owned utility and is not on NEM 3.0. It still uses net metering, so solar you send to the grid during the day is credited close to the retail rate. That keeps the math simple: size the system to your yearly usage and most of your energy charges go away.
Because exports are still valuable on LADWP, a battery is optional. Families add one mainly for backup power during outages, not for savings.
