The state framework sets the default. Where Chugach Electric Association pays something different, the utility tariff governs and is what the card above reports.
| Compensation mechanism | Monthly net exports are credited at the utility tariff's non-firm power rate, unless a different non-firm power rate has been established in a commission-approved contract. |

| Export rate | There is no single statewide dollar export rate: the applicable rate is the non-firm power rate in each utility's currently effective tariff, unless a different commission-approved contract rate applies. |
| Rate effective | The rate is applied for each monthly billing period under the utility's currently effective tariff. |
| Credit rollover | Yes. Dollar credits are used to reduce amounts owed in subsequent monthly billing periods. |
| Credit expiration | Credits do not expire or otherwise revert to the electric utility. |
| Annual true-up | No annual true-up date is specified in the statewide rule; the rule measures net energy during each monthly billing period and applies credits in subsequent monthly billing periods. |
| Program status | The net metering requirements set out in 3 AAC 50.900 – 3 AAC 50.949 apply to an electric utility that is subject to economic regulation, with listed exceptions for certain independent systems and system-stability constraints. |
