Bill Credit Transfer Information
The RE Growth Residential Tariff requires that a residential customer who has installed a small scale
solar system at their service location must use a portion of the Performance Based Incentive payment in
the form of a bill credit to offset the electric service charges on the National Grid electric service
account at the same location. For this purpose, a residential customer is defined as an electric customer
receiving retail delivery service on either Basic Residential Rate A-16 or Low Income Rate A-60. All other
RE Growth Applicants, at their option, may receive a portion of the Performance Based Incentive
payment in the form of a bill credit to offset electric service charges of a National Grid electric service
account, if that account is receiving retail delivery service at the same location as the Facility.

2. Is the Customer at the location of the Facility receiving electric service on a National Grid
commercial electric service account (Rates C-06, G-02, G-32 or G-62), and does the Applicant

If yes to 1, bill credits are required to be transferred, but the recipient does not need to provide a W-9

If yes to 2, and the account holder is not the Applicant of Record, the Customer account holder must
