Net Excess Generation Notes

If the Net Metering Facility feeds back into FGL&P’s system more electricity than is used by the Customer-generator’s owner during a billing period, the Customer-generator will be billed the customer charge applicable to their class of service and be credited for the excess electricity generated and fed to FGL&P’s system. The utility will apply the excess kilowatt-hours as a cumulative credit to the customer-generator’s next monthly bill. For the billing period ending in March of each year, any unused credits that have accumulated during the previous twelve months will be applied to FGL&P’s low- income assistance program. Annual billing cycle will end every March regardless of having less than 12 months of solar production.

Compiled from public records, 2026. Tariffs and interconnection rules change; verify with City of Forest Grove Light & Power before you rely on this. The useful move: if an installer says you need a main panel upgrade, ask how these tap and interconnection policies were considered first.
