Federal control board sues Puerto Rico governor over net metering law amendments, to protect Energy Bureau's independence.

A federal control board sued Puerto Rico's governor over amendments to the island's net metering law, which compensates solar-equipped households for their contributions to the grid. The lawsuit aims to protect the independence of the Puerto Rico Energy Bureau, ensuring it operates free from political influence. The board states that it is not seeking to end net metering or impose changes to the program, and if it wins the lawsuit, there would be no changes to Puerto Rico's current rooftop solar program.
