System Offset Notes

Because Vineland has a relatively large amount of renewable distributed generation, VMEU has areas of high renewable injection, and thus are unable to support installation of new renewable generation in excess of 5 kWAC, if at all.


VMEU allows 90% of the average of either the last one or three years, whichever is lower for residential applicants, and 90% of the last 12 months peak demand for commercial customers


VMEU REQUIRES 12 months of usage and does not allow any form of increase in justification. 11/22/244 - TM

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with VMEU - Vineland Municipal Electric Utility 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.
