Current through Register Vol. 60, No. 12, December 1, 2021 
(1) Upon request from the Program Administrator, an electric company must provide customer electricity account information to the Program Administrator for the purpose of appropriately sizing an ownership interest or subscription in a project. Customer information may not be disclosed to the Program Administrator without consent from the customer. 
 
(2) An electric company must credit participants of a certified project with bill credits as provided in OAR 860-088-0170. The application of the credit may appear on the participants' account in a subsequent billing period due to the time required to calculate the credit and transfer information between entities. The electric company will apply the credit to the participant's account within 30 days of receiving the bill credit information from the Program Administrator. 
 
(3) Each electric company, in conjunction with the Program Administrator, must develop and obtain Commission approval of an on-bill payment model that allows for multiple ownership and subscription configurations to assess and remit on a participant's electricity bill: 
(a) Ownership or subscription fees owed by the participant to the Project Manager. An electric company may only remit fees to a Project Manager once a project has been certified; 
 
(b) Fees owed by the participant to fund the Program Administrator and Low-Income Facilitator; and 
 
(c) Additional fees collectible from participants imposed by Commission order. 
 
 
(4) An electric company must obtain Commission approval of any applicable tariffs required by these rules, including the rate recovery of any expenditure for project development and administration if the electric company is acting as Project Manager.
