Renewable Energy Tariffs
Net Metering – Annual true up• Individual Locations – 120% of annual load
• Solar 500 kW size limit• All others 50 kW size limit
• Credit based on consumer’s retail rate
Generation - Monthly payments• Individual Locations – not limited by load size
• Solar 50-500 kW max• Hydro 100 kW max
• $0.08834/kWh for 2014. Annual 2% escalation
