Funny enough, no. Although that's changing in some places, with electric bills being split into a base fee for everyone hooked up and a variable fee based on usage. Obviously, this pisses off home solar users because they expected to pay nothing.

But most places use the same old model that charges you solely based on usage and was not designed with consumers also being producers.

Home solar aside, significant upgrades to the grid will require higher prices. Introducing large grid-scale solar is a significant upgrade.
