Read first time and referred to the Committee on Energy and Digital Infrastructure
Summary
The bill changes Vermont’s net‑metering rules so that the negative adjustor (a credit penalty) on solar energy sent back to the grid cannot be more than $0.04 per kilowatt‑hour, and it eliminates any adjustor for electricity used or stored on‑site. This affects residential and commercial customers with solar panels and the utilities that purchase their excess power. The aim is to make solar generation more financially predictable and encourage on‑site consumption.
