In this section: The term distributed generation means the generation of electric energy for use at or near the point of generation. The term electric consumer means any person to whom electric energy is sold for purposes other than resale. The term electric utility means any person that sells electric energy. The term interconnection practice means any rate, charge, fee, requirement, or contractual term required by an electric utility— to connect a distributed energy facility owned or operated by an electric consumer to facilities of the electric utility; to purchase from an electric consumer electric energy generated by a distributed generation facility; or to sell electric energy to an electric consumer that owns or operates a distributed generation facility.
The Federal Trade Commission shall conduct an investigation to determine the extent to which interconnection practices impede the use of distributed generation. On completion of the investigation under subsection (b), the Federal Trade Commission shall— identify any interconnection practice that substantially injures electric consumers and violates public policies promoting the development of distributed generation; determine whether any interconnection practice identified under paragraph
(1)is an unfair act or practice in or affecting commerce in violation of section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( 15 U.S.C. 45 ); and report to Congress the findings and conclusions of the investigation (including the determinations under paragraphs
(1)and (2)) and any recommendations for additional legislation that the Commission determines is needed to remove unfair impediments to the development of distributed generation.
