Customer-generators should not be exposed to deceptive enrollment practices. This bill protects consumers and supports distributed renewable energy.
Let's do everything we can to support solar energy and move away from fossil fuels which are limited and polluting.
This bill requires an electric utility to move a customer-generator back to default service if the customer-generator was enrolled in a third-party electricity supply program without explicit consent. It also requires the utility to retroactively apply net metering credits for up to 6 months for any exported kWh that were not credited because of the inadvertent enrollment. This would protect customer-generators from administrative mistakes by the utilities.
I support this bill which would protect customer-generators from administrative mistakes by the utilities.
