2014 House Bill 5676

Expand electricity “net metering” mandate

Introduced in the House

June 12, 2014

Introduced by Rep. Jeff Irwin (D-53)

To require the Public Service Commission to establish an alternative methodology for determining rates paid under a “net metering” mandate imposed on utilities, which requires them to purchase electricity from customers who generate small amounts. Among other things the alternative rate would have to compensate a net metering customer for value of electricity to “the electric provider, its customers, and society”.

Referred to the Committee on Energy and Technology
