a. If a Customer produces more energy than consumed during an individual billing cycle a kWh credit will be carried forward until consumed or the end of the calendar year as described below.
b. If a Customer produces more energy than consumed during any calendar year;
1. Following the first billing cycle that ends on or after the last day of each calendar year the Village will issue a credit to the customer.
2. The credit will be calculated by multiplying the kWh credit balance times the average of the Average Cost of Fuel from the Village’s monthly Statements of Fuel Adjustment Cost filed during the past 12 months, adjusted by the Factor of Adjustment.
3. The kWh credit balance shall be reset to zero once payment is made.
