NET METERING PROCESS

Why Net Metering Pakistan? Net metering in Pakistan Net metering allows residential and commercial customers who generate their own electricity from solar power to sell the electricity they aren’t using back into the grid. Many states have passed net metering laws. In other states, utilities may offer net metering programs voluntarily or as a result of regulatory decisions. Differences between state legislation, regulatory decisions and implementation policies mean that the mechanism for compensating solar customers varies widely across the country

WHAT IS NET METERING EXACTLY?

What Is Net Metering Exactly? Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. For example, if a residential customer has a PV system on their roof, it may generate more electricity than the home uses during daylight hours. If the home is net-metered, the electricity meter will run backwards to provide a credit against what electricity is consumed at night or other periods when the home’s electricity use exceeds the system’s output. Customers are only billed for their “net” energy use. On average, only 20-40% of a solar energy system’s output ever goes into the grid, and this exported solar electricity serves nearby customers’ loads.

Giving Customers Control Over Their Electricity Bills

Net metering allows utility customers to generate their own electricity cleanly and efficiently. During the day, most solar customers produce more electricity than they consume; net metering allows them to export that power to the grid and reduce their future electric bills.

The following guidelines explain the trends in state and utility net metering measures:

Installation of Solar System:

The first and the foremost step is to get your Premier Energy Net metering compliant solar system installed. Premier Group successfully caters to all three sectors of domestic, commercial, and industrial clients. We excel in the provision of the small-scale domestic system as 1kva to multi-megawatts industrial systems.

Preparation of Application:

The second step begins with the preparation of application as per the rules of SRO 892 (1) 2015. This process is made easier and smooth for our valued clients by supporting them on each & every step of application preparation for a solar net metering system in Pakistan.

Inspection & NOC issuance:

The approval of the application will lead to the phase of inspection carried out by the Energy Department. The electrical inspection team will inspect the system as per SRO 892(1)/2015 & SOP from DISCO. After the satisfactory inspection of the system, you’ll be issued NOC.

Allotment of Generation License:

The agreement signed between you and DISCO will be handed over to NEPRA for a generation License. Once the legal agreement is verified by the ruling body, it will allow you to be an independent power producer for the next three years.

Activation of Net Meter

The last but not the least step involves DISCO in making you the independent power-producing authority. After the successful allotment of the generation license, your net meter will be activated making you able to save & earn simultaneously.
