A summary of the state’s updated net-metering policy and how it affects new rooftop installations.
Andhra Pradesh’s electricity regulator issued an updated net-metering order this year, and the details matter for anyone installing a system above 10 kW.
The key change
Systems above 10 kW now settle exported units on a monthly netting basis rather than instantaneous netting — a technical shift, but one that changes how your bill credit is calculated.
Does this affect existing installations?
No — the order applies to new net-metering applications only. Anything already commissioned keeps its existing metering arrangement.
