electricity supplied to a customer-generator
and the electricity generated by the customer-
generator that is delivered to a local
distribution system at the same point of
interconnection during an applicable billing
period; and
``(ii) providing an energy credit to the
customer-generator in the form of a kilowatt-
hour credit for each kilowatt-hour of energy
produced by the customer-generator from a
qualified generation unit.
``(E) Qualified generation unit.--The term
`qualified generation unit' means an electric energy
generation unit that uses as the energy source of the
unit solar energy to generate electricity to heat or
cool that--
``(i) has a generating capacity of not more
than 5,000 kilowatts;
``(ii) is located on premises that are
owned, operated, leased, or otherwise
controlled by the customer-generator;

served basis, to each of the retail customers of the
retail electric supplier in accordance with the
requirements described in subparagraph (B) and other
provisions of this subsection.
``(B) Requirements.--The requirements referred to
in subparagraph (A) are, with respect to a retail
electric supplier, that--
``(i) rates and charges and contract terms

``(ii) each retail electric supplier shall
notify all of the retail customers of the
retail electric supplier of the standard
established under this paragraph as soon as
practicable after the adoption of the standard.
``(4) Net energy measurement.--

during the billing period, the customer-
generator shall be billed for the net electric
energy supplied by the retail electric supplier
in accordance with normal billing practices.
``(ii) Crediting.--
``(I) In general.--If electric
energy generated by the customer-
generator exceeds the electric energy
supplied by the retail electric
supplier during the billing period, the
customer-generator shall be billed for

credits.--At the beginning of each 12-
month period, any unused kilowatt-hour
credits remaining from the preceding
year will carry over to the new 12-
month period.

``(i) In general.--Except as provided in
clause (ii), if a customer-generator is using a
meter and retail billing arrangement that has
time-differentiated rates--
``(I) the kilowatt-hour credit
shall be based on the ratio
representing the difference in retail
rates for each time-of-use rate; or
``(II) the credits shall be
reflected on the bill of the customer-
generator as a monetary credit
reflecting retail rates at the time of
generation of the electric energy by
the customer-generator.
``(ii) Different tariffs or services.--A

customer-generator the choice of a time-
differentiated energy tariff rate or a nontime-
differentiated energy tariff rate, if the
retail electric supplier offers the choice to
customers in the same rate class as the
customer-generator.
``(6) Percent limitations.--
``(A) 8 percent limitation.--The standard
established under this subsection shall not apply for a
calendar year in the case of a customer-generator
served by a local distribution company if the total
generating capacity of all customer-generators with net
