    Bill, The refurbished utility meter is the lowest cost option that
    meets the requirements of accuracy for RECs that I am aware of.

      <div>CA wrenches,</div>
      <div> </div>
      <div>        I'm trying to (for the sake of my monetarily impaired
        customers) figure out a less expensive way to meter/monitor
        small enphase systems.  One of my local utilities will allow me
        to just use a remanufactured utility-grade meter (ala AEE) These
        meters are inexpensive, robust and accurate but only display
        total production.  </div>
      <div> </div>
      <div>        The Envoy retails for over $5 bills.  Most of my
        customers are not interested in checking their PV system on the
        internet, well not after a couple weeks.  I can't seem to find
        any requirement from PG&E other than in Section 5.1 of the
        guidebook: " All systems receiving an EPBB incentive must
        install a production meter accurate to +- 5% of actual system
        output...."       which is pretty vague.  plus the is no CSI
        incentive  anymore.</div>
      <div> </div>
      <div>        Anybody have a suggestion that is different from the
        remanu utility meter?....and possibly gives current wattage
        output, and is "approved" by PG&E interconnection?</div>
      <div> </div>
