Cap Allocations provided to proposed solar facilities authorize Net Metering Services up to the KW DC-STC capacity requested in an Application for Cap Allocation. The Cap Allocation (or impact against the Cap) provided to solar facilities is calculated at 0.8 x KW DC-STC, per the Section 5(B) of the System of Assurance of Net Metering Eligibility, a value set by the Massachusetts Legislature.

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with MASS ACA - Net Metering Cap Allocation before you rely on this. The useful move: if an installer says you need a main panel upgrade, ask how these tap and interconnection policies were considered first.
