# Will I still receive electricity bills if I have solar panels?

Yes, you will still receive electricity bills even if you have solar panels. The electricity bills measure your electricity consumption (over a certain time period) from the utility grid. Installing a solar panel system can ensure a significant reduction in the amount you pay.

You can remove electricity bills altogether if your solar system is equipped with sufficient battery storage that allows you to go completely off-grid.
