ERC amends net-metering rules to expand renewable energy options
As per the ERC, one of the key amendments permits the banking and rollover of net-metering credits toward a qualified end-user's electricity usage across current and future billing periods.
It added that in the event of a property ownership change, the credits may be transferred to the new owner, subject to conditions such as a conforme letter from the original owner., This news data comes from:http://erlvyiwan.com
Net-metering allows customers of distribution utilities to install an on-site Renewable Energy (RE) facility not exceeding 100 kilowatts (kW) in capacity so they can generate electricity for their own use.
In turn, any electricity generated that is not consumed by the customer is automatically exported to the distribution utility's’s distribution system.
