Comment
Oxford County Comments:
We agree every effort should be made to ensure the consumer is protected from potentially unscrupulous conduct by participating energy retailers or Third Party Owners. Net Metering and Virtual Net Metering offer the promise of greater access to sources of renewable energy across all demographic and income profiles. Renewable energy should be accessible by everyone regardless of the ability to directly invest.
Protecting the integrity of the program itself is also paramount. In the event that Regulation 389/10 fails to protect the consumer, the net metering and virtual net metering program will likewise be adversely affected.
In the event that a single consumer is adversely affected as a result of effective regulation, other consumers may be indirectly impacted as a result of stigma and or negative press resulting from a failed retailer/TPO/consumer relationship.
