Description

Electric utilities; net energy metering. Increases the maximum generating capacity of an electrical generating facility owned or operated by an electric utility's residential customer that may be eligible for participation in the utility's net energy metering program from 20 kilowatts to 40 kilowatts. The measure also increases the maximum generating capacity of such a facility owned or operated by a nonresidential customer that may be eligible for participation in such a program from 500 kilowatts to one megawatt. This change to the definition of an "eligible customer-generator" also affects the definition of a "qualified energy project" as used in the Virginia Small Business Financing Act. Read the Bill »
