Texas HB3904 regulates billing and payments for distributed renewable generation.

Texas HB3904 amends the Utilities Code to regulate billing and payments for distributed renewable generation. It prohibits electric cooperatives, municipally owned utilities, and retail electric providers from requiring owners of distributed renewable generation to install meters unless there is a written agreement for the transfer, assignment, or sale of renewable energy credits and monetary consideration is paid. The bill mandates that surplus electricity produced by solar generation be made available for sale to the grid, credited to the owner's bill, and exempt from taxes and fees.
