MANILA, Philippines — The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) announced that it has issued the 2025 Amended Rules Enabling the Net-Metering Program for Renewable Energy.
ERC amends net-metering rules to expand renewable energy options
The regulator said this development aimed to streamline the implementation of the net-metering program and make renewable energy (RE) adoption more accessible to qualified end-users.
Following a series of public consultations and careful review of stakeholders’ inputs, the ERC issued Resolution 15, Series of 2025, introducing key amendments aimed at strengthening consumer protection and simplifying processes for availing of the program.
As per the ERC, one of the key amendments permits the banking and rollover of net-metering credits toward a qualified end-user's electricity usage across current and future billing periods.
It added that in the event of a property ownership change, the credits may be transferred to the new owner, subject to conditions such as a conforme letter from the original owner.
Net-metering allows customers of distribution utilities to install an on-site Renewable Energy (RE) facility not exceeding 100 kilowatts (kW) in capacity so they can generate electricity for their own use.
In turn, any electricity generated that is not consumed by the customer is automatically exported to the distribution utility's’s distribution system., This news data comes from:http://052298.com
