Net Excess Generation Notes

1. If the amount of electricity used by the member during the billing period exceeds the amount of electricity produced by the member, the Cooperative shall charge the member for the difference of the energy component of the electricity supplied to and used by the member at the defined rate tariff for the energy the member would be charged if the member was not a Co-Generation Metering member.

2. If the amount of electricity produced by a member during the billing period exceeds the amount of electricity used by the member during that billing period, the Cooperative will carry over the excess as a credit using an export rate. The Cooperative shall continue to carry over any export rate credits earned and apply those credits to subsequent billing periods to offset any member energy consumption in those billing periods until all credits are used or until the end of the member selected annual period.

The utility offers a 1:1 net metering program, but is capped at 1%. The program is currently full and has moved to an export rate.

SLD Reqs

A 200A disconnect for the service must be installed at the meter

Electric Service Reqs

• Breakers at the metering point location do not constitute as the “visible, lockable disconnect” that is required.

Install Reqs

• If there is a current EECA pedestal at the service location, members will be required to build a meter structure to EECA specifications. The coop will remove the pedestal.
• If tying (connecting) into a meter on an EECA pole, installers must go underground and come up in the bottom of the disconnect. No generation associated equipment may be installed on an EECA pole.
• When installing a ground mount PV system, solar panels shall not be located within 10 feet of any primary underground electric services.
• Installers shall be present upon final interconnection inspection (witness test) with EECA. At this time EECA personnel will set the net & production meters.
