Systems that generate between 100 kilowatt and 1 megawatt (MW) currently collect credits at their utility's default service rate. This bill expands the size of systems that can obtain these credits to 5 MW. This expansion will permit municipalities, schools, and community groups to install solar or wind generation to produce their own power without wasting any of the excess power they make. The bill also permits small-scale hydro producers of up to 5 MW to move behind the meter and thus to reduce the grid's electricity load while receiving a higher price for the power they generate. The amendment removes a provision that allowed generators up to 25 MW to net meter the first 5 MW of their output. This provision was intended to help wood burning electricity plants, but it was not clear how net metering would help this class of profit-making producers. The amendment also grandfathers the tariff for 1 MW to 5 MW producers for a period of twelve years. An ongoing proceeding at the Public Utilities Commission will eventually set a permanent tariff for all net metered systems."}], "source": "House Calendar 15, 2018", "date": "2018-04-19", "dated": "signed", "cite": "HC 15", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2015%20April%2013%202018.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2018-03-08", "dated": "signed", "body": "S", "committee": "Energy and Natural Resources", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": 5, "vote_nays": 0, "amendment": "2018-0972s", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 10A", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2010A%20March%2001%202018.pdf"}, {"date": "2018-03-14", "dated": "signed", "body": "S", "committee": "Energy and Natural Resources", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "2018-0972s", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 11", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2011%20March%2008%202018.pdf"}, {"date": "2018-05-02", "dated": "signed", "body": "H", "committee": "Science, Technology and Energy", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": 19, "vote_nays": 1, "amendment": "2018-1742h", "new_title": false, "cite": "HC 17", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2017%20April%2027%202018.pdf"}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Energy and Utilities", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Science, Technology and Energy", "senate_committee": "Energy and Natural Resources", "lsr": "2018-2961", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2961&sy=2018&txtsessionyear=2018&txtbillnumber=sb446&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill text", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/billText.aspx?id=1977&txtFormat=html&sy=2018", "kind": "text"}, {"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=2961&sy=2018&txtsessionyear=2018&txtbillnumber=sb446&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2961&sy=2018&txtsessionyear=2018&txtbillnumber=sb446&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "SC 3", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2003%20January%2011%202018.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 10A", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2010A%20March%2001%202018.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 11", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2011%20March%2008%202018.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 15, page 9", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2015%20April%2013%202018.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "HC 17, page 8", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2018%5CNo%2017%20April%2027%202018.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "2018-0972s", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2018-03-14", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "", "source": "", "targets": [], "supersedes": []}, {"num": "2018-1021s", "kind": "Floor Amendment", "where": "floor", "date": "2018-03-14", "body": "S", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "Sen.

It retains the current net metering billing credit for facilities greater than 100 kilowatts (kW) and up to 1 MW. Section 1 of the bill provides that facilities greater than 1 MW and less than or equal to 5 MW would be eligible for net metering under the current tariff arrangement (i.e. net metering for 100 kW to l MW receive default service rates). Facilities over 1 MW and up to 5 MW interconnecting under the current tariff will be grandfathered for 12 years until 2030, if the customer-generator's electrical generating facility first became operational on or after July 1, 2018. After December 31, 2030, those customer\u00adgenerators would transition to tariffs that are in effect at the time.\n\nLarger customer-generators (renewable energy facilities with capacities up to and including 5 MW) would be eligible for net metering 60-days after passage of the bill. Existing large renewable energy facilities such as hydro, wind and landfill gas may switch to become customer generators and employ the current net metering tariff for compensation. Development and interconnection of new large customer sited renewable generation facilities like solar, hydro, wind and landfill gas may also employ the net metering tariff for compensation and would be grandfathered until December 31, 2030. This provision may increase development of new large-scale renewable systems. Increased installations of customer sited sources, or customer-generators, will increase capacity on the electricity distribution system and may decrease overall load due to the behind the meter usage of customer-generated electricity.\n\nTo the extent that the State, county or local governmental units are able to install their own renewable generation facilities, those governmental entities may benefit from lower electricity costs and may also receive revenues in the form of net metered payments for excess power generated.\n\nAGENCIES CONTACTED:\n\nPublic Utilities Commission", "in_text": [], "chars": 6180}, "nver": 0, "namd": 0, "rsa": {"RSA 362-A:1-a": "/laws/362-a#s1-a", "RSA 83-F:1": "/laws/83-f#s1", "RSA 362-A:9": "/laws/362-a#s9"}, "amends": {"RSA 362-A:1-a": "/laws/362-a#s1-a", "RSA 83-F:1": "/laws/83-f#s1", "RSA 362-A:9": "/laws/362-a#s9"}}
