Blocking Net Energy Metering Expansion (1 MW to 5 MW)

The legislation would have expanded net metering from 1 MW to 5 MW, helping businesses and towns lower energy costs through larger local energy projects. Blocking the expansion limited that option for reducing municipal and business energy bills.
