Preparing for NEM-3 – What the ACC Decision Means for Solar and Energy Storage

With NEM-3 on the horizon, major changes could significantly impact the value of solar and energy storage projects in California. In this webinar, we break down proposed utility reforms and what they could mean for project economics. We also explored the California Public Utilities Commission’s (CPUC) recent Avoided Cost Calculator (ACC) decision, an early signal of how exported solar energy may be valued under NEM-3 and what developers should be doing now to prepare.

Things you’ll learn:

Key elements of the IOUs’ proposed NEM-3 changes
Export value reductions based on the Avoided Cost Calculator (ACC)
How these changes affect C&I PV and energy storage project economics
Side-by-side comparison of NEM-2 vs. NEM-3 impacts

It’s for you if you:

Model or sell C&I solar and energy storage in California, and need to understand NEM-3’s impact

Want to compare NEM-2 vs. NEM-3 to evaluate financial outcomes

Need clarity on export values under the new Avoided Cost Calculator (ACC)

Want to grasp key policy changes like the Grid Benefits Charge and TOU netting
