Will I still get a bill from Farmers EC if I install a solar power system?

Yes. Solar power systems do not produce power at all hours of the day. Even during a normal sunny day, you might have periodic cloud cover, or temporary fluctuations in usage at your home. And of course, after the sun goes down, all your electricity will still come from the grid.
