- Summary
- Indiana ended retail-rate net metering for the five large investor-owned utilities on July 1, 2022, under Senate Enrolled Act 309 (2017). Excess generation is now credited at the prior-year wholesale rate plus 25 percent, an Excess Distributed Generation (EDG) credit that runs roughly 70 to 80 percent lower than retail. Customers interconnected before the cutoff are grandfathered into legacy net metering through July 1, 2047.
