Page No. 51 SCHEDULE R-3 NET ENERGY METERING APPLICABILITY Applicable to domestic service to residential customers eligible for service where a part or all of the electrical requirements of the customer can be supplied from a photovoltaic power production source owned and operated by the customer, where such source is located on the customer's premises and is intended to offset part or all of the customer's electrical requirements. Applicability of this tariff does not extend to customers whose photovoltaic power production source exceeds 10 KW. RATES (per meter, per month)(Subject to PCA defined in General Provisions) Net Energy Charge : First 250 kWh, per kWh ..................... 8.27 cents Additional kWh ............................................. 9.89 cents Minimum Charge: $4.03 SPECIAL CONDITIONS 1. GENERATION AGREEMENT: A generation Agreement with the customer is required for service under this schedule. 2. NET ENERGY: Net Energy is Es minus Ef where Es is energy supplied by the utility and Ef is energy generated by the customer and fed back into the utility's system at such times as customer generation exceeds customer requirements. Only if net energy is positive shall net energy charges be applied at the rates specified above except that the Minimum Charge will be applied in any case. If the calculation of net energy yields a negative result, all such negative net energy shall be considered net energy transmitted and shall be treated as stated in Special Condition No. 3 below. The components of net energy, Es and Ef shall be determined by the use of a single, non -demand, non -time -differentiated meter to be provided by the Utility at no charge to the customer. 3. NET ENERGY TRANSMITTED: Net energy transmitted occurs when the cumulative value of Ef exceeds the cumulative value of Es during an entire billing period and is the amount by which the energy generated by the customer and fed back into the utility's system exceeds the energy supplied by the utility over an entire billing period. Such net energy transmitted will be purchased by the utility at a rate for payment equal to the utility's applicable standard offer non -time -differentiated energy payment rate. 4. BILLING AND BILLING PERIODS: The billing period to be used under this tariff shall be the customary monthly billing period or an annual period consisting of twelve consecutive monthly billing periods and commencing with the start of the billing period that most closely coincides with the first calendar day of the year. If the customer elects to use the annual billing period, the utility shall still make monthly determinations of the net energy produced or consumed. In any monthly billing period where Es exceeds Ef, the utility will bill the customer for the net energy consumed per the terms of the tariff. In monthly billing periods where Ef exceeds Es, the Utility will credit the customer for the excess kWh's generated and the amount of excess kWh's credited will appear on a monthly billing statement to the customer. This kWh credit will be applied toward any net energy consumption in subsequent monthly billing periods. If at the end of the annual billing period there remains an excess kWh credit, the Utility shall issue payment to the customer for any remaining unused credit. Payment will be determined as provided for in Special Condition No. 3 above. ISSUED BY Thomas K. Clarke Effective by Resolution No. Dated Electric Utilities Director Superseding Resolution No. Dated
