净计量
考利茨 PUD’s 净计量 program offers a special metering and billing arrangement between you and the PUD by interconnecting your small generation system with the PUD’s electric distribution system through your electric meter.
- Qualified customer-generating systems may include fuel cells or facilities that 使用 a fuel to generate up to 100 kilowatts (kW) of electricity with the following methods:
- 水
- 风
- 太阳能
- 从动物粪便中提取沼气
For more information about 净计量 and 考利茨 PUD’s Interconnection Standards, please contact our Engineering Department at (360) 501-9546 by 给我们发邮件. For information regarding the State incentive payments program, please contact our 能源效率 Services Department at (360) 501‐9392 or 通过电子邮件.
净计量如何运作
- 也许有那么几次, when your own small generation system produces more electricity than you need, 供自己使用. 在这些时候, 与PUD批准的互连到位, this excess electricity will be transmitted into the electric grid.
- 在到达PUD配电线路之前, the excess electricity you produce will first pass through your electric meter.
- The meter will record the flow of the electricity that your system produces, which offsets prior electric usage the meter has recorded and reduces your PUD bill.
所需的互连标准
With the safety of its customers and employees in mind, 考利茨 PUD has joined with other electric utilities in the state to develop standards for interconnection to electric utility delivery systems for up to 100 kW. These standards have been developed by a statewide group of utility representatives in an effort to establish uniform standards.
Before your small generation system can be connected to our distribution system, the requirements of 考利茨 PUD’s Interconnection Standards Policy must be met.
对电费的影响
根据净计量安排, the PUD will continue to read your meter and you will receive electric bills on your normal monthly billing schedule. If you 使用 more energy than you generate in a given billing cycle, 你将成为一个“净消费者”,” and the net consumption would appear as a charge on your current bill.
For customers with more than one metered service within the PUD’s service territory, 计聚合, 根据州法律, would be applied to the net energy 使用 for all meters regardless of the rate class.
If you generate more electricity than you 使用 in a given month, 你将按月收取基本费用, 适用于您的房价表, and the excess kilowatt‐hours will be credited toward your next bill.
由州法律规定, 每年3月31日, any kilowatt‐hour generating credit accumulated over the previous 12 months will be zeroed out without additional compensation paid to the customer‐generator.
客户成本
考利茨 PUD charges a $100 non‐refundable application fee. There may be additional costs for, but not limited to, transformers, meters, and utility testing. These costs will be estimated for you during the application re视图 process.
