Net Metering Protection: State Solar Energy Sales Rules

This act aims to ensure that state authorities can freely implement and enforce rules for net metering of solar energy. This means that if you own solar panels and produce surplus energy, state regulations for selling it back to the grid will not be blocked by federal entities. Citizens can thus be assured that local decisions regarding renewable energy will be respected.
Key points

Federal entities cannot block or obstruct the implementation of state net metering standards.
The act supports state independence in shaping energy policy, potentially affecting the profitability of solar installations for citizens.
