metering system of the customer-generator has a capacity of not more than 25

4. On or before the 15th day of each
calendar month, a utility shall post on its Internet website and report to the
Commission the cumulative installed capacity of the net metering systems with a
capacity of not more than 25 kilowatts for which a customer-generator has
accepted the offer of that utility as of the close of business of the utility
on the last business day of the immediately preceding calendar month.

subsection, for the purposes of this section, a customer-generator shall be

before June 15, 2017, and whose net metering system has a capacity of not more
than 25 kilowatts may, but is not required to, submit a request to be treated
for all purposes, including, without limitation, for the purposes of subsection
3, as a customer-generator who accepted the offer of the utility for net
metering on the date of submitting the request.
