UTILITIES-NET METERING

Summary
Amends the Public Utilities Act. Provides that notwithstanding the definition of "eligible customer" in a specified provision, each electricity provider shall allow meter aggregation for the purposes of net metering eligible renewable electrical generating facilities owned or operated by school districts, community college districts, or units of local government pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement. Provides that electricity providers shall provide net metering to all parties to the intergovernmental agreement so that all energy produced by the eligible renewable electrical generating facilities is applied as a 1:1 kilowatt hour credit for each party to the intergovernmental agreement. Provides that electricity providers shall carry over any excess kilowatt-hour credits earned and apply those credits to subsequent billing periods to offset any customer-generated consumption until all credits are used or until the end of the annualized period. Provides that the electricity provider shall not discontinue meter aggregation as long as the intergovernmental agreement described in specified provisions is in effect. Effective immediately.
