Document background
The Net Metering Credit Agreement is essential for implementing renewable energy systems in Canada where customers wish to receive credit for excess electricity generation. This document type is used when a property owner installs renewable energy generation equipment (typically solar panels) and wants to participate in the utility's net metering program. The agreement outlines how excess energy is measured, credited, and billed, ensuring compliance with provincial regulations and utility requirements. It's particularly relevant given Canada's increasing focus on renewable energy adoption and the varying provincial frameworks for net metering programs. The agreement must be tailored to specific provincial requirements as electricity regulation falls under provincial jurisdiction, though it generally follows similar principles across Canada.
