ERC amends net-metering rules to expand renewable energy options
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.
