Solar Rooftop Project - Installation and Net-Metering
Solar Projects can be installed on open rooftop space, wherein generated green electricity can be consumed by the customer and excess electricity can be exported to the government grid. Best win-win proposition for consumer, grid, government and environment.
Main features of the Net Metering Policy for Rooftop Solar PV Plants:
1. “Eligible Consumer” means a consumer of electricity in the area of supply of the Distribution Licensee who uses or intends to use a Solar Photo Voltaic (“PV”) generating System having a capacity less than 1000 KW, installed on a roof-top or any other mounting structure in his premises, to meet all or part of his own electricity requirement, and includes a Consumer catering to a common load such as a Housing Society.
2. The capacity of the Roof-top Solar PV System to be connected at the Eligible Consumer’s premises shall not exceed his Contract Demand (in kVA) or Sanctioned load (in kW).
3. If the quantum of electricity exported exceeds the quantum imported during the Billing Period, the excess quantum shall be carried forward to the next Billing Period as credited Units of electricity. The unadjusted net credited Units of electricity as at the end of each financial year shall be purchased by the Distribution Licensee at its APPC as approved for that year. At the beginning of each Settlement Period, the cumulative quantum of injected electricity carried forward will be re-set to zero.
4. In case the Eligible Consumer is within the ambit of ToD tariff, the electricity consumption in any time block, i.e. peak hours, off-peak hours, etc., shall be first compensated with the quantum of electricity injected in the same time block.
