BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In June 2003, the City adopted the Net Energy Metering Schedule, NEW The City of Lodi is required by State of California legislation, Assembly Bill 58, to offer customers who install qualified solar and wind generation, 10 kW or less in size, a `net metering" rate. Net metering measures the difference between the electricity supplied by the City through the electric grid and the electricity generated by a customer -generator with credit being applied at the retail rate. This same legislation allows for municipally -owned utilities to establish a "co -metering„ rate for those custanmer-generators that ineWil units larger than 10 kW. Electricity consumed by the customer will be billed at the applicable retail rate and the generation of electricity provided to the City credited to the custorner-generator will be equal to the "generation component of the applicable rate schedule. The generation component of the applicable rate is proposed to equal one-half (112) of the applicable demand and energy charges. When this rate schedule was adopted in 2003, the co energy metering component was not included. Implementing a new co -metering schedule also requires adjustments to the net metering schedule. FISCAL IMPACT: The addition of a Co -Energy Metering Rider will reduce payments by the Electric Utility Department for solar energy generated by large (greater than 10 kW) customer -owned facilities to a level generally consistent with market power alternatives.
