Installed Capacity Caps for Distributed Photovoltaics and their Impacts on Compensation Mechanisms
- National Renewable Energy Lab. (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
As jurisdictions around the world initiate or revise distributed photovoltaic (DPV) policies and regulations amid changing market conditions, they may benefit from understanding the interaction of compensation mechanisms and installed capacity caps-two important aspects of DPV program design. This brief discusses common practices, design options, and lessons learned pertaining to these two topics. It includes examples largely derived from the experience of U.S. jurisdictions.
