Why would my electric car need to burn coal? I have solar.

In fact... I just got a check from my power company for $124. In the past year I put in more power back into the grid than I took out, and even after my meager natural gas usage I pulled out a small profit. I also made $2k from the solar company directly in the past year by sending them new customers... so.... Not only did I not take any power from from the grid, I also made about $900 for year which is after my costs for the panels.
