permanently ineligible to receive net surplus electricity compensation, and the electric utility shall retain any kilowatt hours in excess of the eligible customer generator's aggregated electrical load generated during the l2-month period. In the Commission’s review of the large IOUs’ advice letters implementing their NEMA programs, parties requested clarification that the permanent prohibition on NSC only applied to the Generator Account, and not to an Aggregated Account that subsequently separates from a Load Aggregation Arrangement. In Resolution E-4665, the Commission determined that if an account participating in NEMA is removed from the NEMA arrangement and then qualifies for service under the non-NEMA provisions of the NEM tariff, the account is eligible to receive NSC from the IOU on a going-forward basis, provided it meets all other eligibility criteria. As such, the Commission directed the large IOUs to include the following language in their NEM tariffs: If an Aggregated Account that is not a Generating Account is separated from the NEMA Arrangement, and subsequently qualifies for NEM, it is also eligible to receive NSC on a going-forward basis, provided it meets all other applicable NEM eligibility criteria. In order to ensure that there is consistency in how NSC eligibility is applied across the small IOUs and large IOUs, we direct the small IOUs to include the following language in their revised NEM tariffs: If an Aggregated Account that is not a Generating Account is separated from the NEMA Arrangement, and subsequently qualifies for NEM, it is also eligible to receive NSC on a basis, provided it meets all other applicable NEM eligibility criteria. Issue 5: Non-NEM Eligible Generator with NEMA Arrangement In the Commission’s review of the large IOUs’ advice letters implementing their NEMA programs, parties raised a concern that one of the IOUs’ proposed changes would prohibit the combination of a non-NEM eligible generator with a NEMA arrangement. In Resolution E-4665, the Commission clarified that NEMA accounts are allowed to have non-NEM eligible generating facilities directly interconnected to them, and directed the IOUs to modify their NEM tariffs to reflect this. In order to ensure consistency in how NEMA arrangements are treated across the small IOUs and large IOUs, we direct the small IOUs to ensure their tariffs
