The Electricity Marketplace Governance Committee (part of the Nova Scotia
Energy Strategy) Second Interim Report focuses on renewables and renewable
generation of electricity. One section of the Report makes a series of
recommendations regarding net metering, a way for electrical customers to
generate and supply electricity to themselves as well as electricity
utilities and distributors. 
 
The Second Interim Report makes seven recommendations for net metering,
none of which favour the customer who is generating electricity. This
paper considers the recommendations, highlighting the limitations of each.
A series of alternate recommendations are proposed.
