The National Energy Commission announced the start of a program that will enable those producing energy from renewable sources to plug into the national grid and receive credits for energy supplied to the grid. Enrique Ramirez, president of the CNE, Celso Marranzini, executive vice president of the Public Electricity Corporation (CDEEE) and Energy Superintendent Juan Gomez said the new program will revolutionize the electricity system, contribute to improve the environment and financially benefit consumers that produce electricity from renewable sources of energy.

Ramirez explained that if a user generates 50kWh of energy a month and consumes 150 kWh of the grid, the power distributor will only bill him 100 kWh on his next bill. Ramirez said that if the user generates more power than consumed, the power distributor will only bill the minimum that corresponds to a closed house, as reported in Diario Libre.
