An Overview of Behind-The-Meter Solar-Plus-Storage Regulatory Design: Approaches and Case Studies to Inform International Applications

Publicly accessible License 

This NREL overview examines regulatory designs for behind-the-meter solar-plus-storage installations, focusing on how policies, incentives, and market structures influence deployment. It summarizes approaches used in several jurisdictions, analyzes tariff structures, net metering policies, and interconnection rules, and highlights case studies from around the world. The report aims to inform regulators and policymakers in developing countries about best practices and pitfalls when crafting rules for customer-sited solar-plus-storage systems. The description is inferred because a specific link was not provided.
