MO HB481

Removes the 100 kilowatt capacity limit on customer-generator electrical generating systems, allowing larger renewable energy installations to participate in net metering

Changes how excess energy credits are calculated: net excess energy must now be carried forward month-to-month and credited at a one-to-one ratio against future consumption, replacing the previous "avoided fuel cost" compensation method

Accumulated net excess energy credits expire without compensation at the end of the March billing period of a twelve-month cycle, or when service is discontinued, rather than the previous twelve-month rolling expiration

Limits customer-generator systems to producing no more than 100% of their own electrical energy requirements

Adds a definition of "minimum bill" to include non-kilowatt-hour charges (service charges, meter charges, demand charges, etc.) that customer-generators must still pay even when generating excess energy
