A project team had a utility company install a photovoltaic system where the utility company retained the environmental benefit attributes of the system. What statement is true regarding this system?
A: The project will not be able to participate in a net metering program, if available
B: The system will reduce the amount of energy consumed by the project
C: The project can participate in a net metering program and sell back the electricity at a premium
D: The energy produced by the system is ineligible for Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Green Power

参考答案: D

本题解释:
Notes:
Reference: Energy and Atmosphere Credit, On-Site Renewable Energy, Implementation,
Retention of Renewable Energy Environmental Attributes
If the environmental attributes are retired or retained, the energy is ineligible. Power sold
back to the grid cannot be sold at a premium, because this indicates that the
environmental attributes are being sold.

Renewable energy systems do not reduce the amount of energy consumed; they only
alter the type of energy consumed.
