Additional Information	Adopted in 1991, North Dakota's net-metering rules apply both to renewable-energy generators and cogenerators (combined-heat-and-power systems) up to 100 kilowatts (kW) in capacity. Net metering is available to all investor-owned electric utility customers. There is no statewide limit on the total capacity of all net-metered systems. If a customer has net excess generation (NEG) at the end of a monthly billing period, the utility must purchase the NEG at the utility's avoided-cost rate. Customer-generators retain ownership of renewable-energy credits (RECs) associated with customer load, while RECs associated with NEG convey to the utility (with compensation to the customer-generator). However, the utility may recover metering costs associated with production monitoring from a net-metered system.
