we need to convince La Plata Elect. to accept Virtual Net Metering for solar systems. We have an intown home that has bad exposure for solar, but we also have county land that has ample sun, it would be nice to place a solar system in the county and apply those credits to an in-town meter. Under the La Plata guidelines, this can not be accomplished.
