Previous research on distributed solar PV (DPV) systems in Lebanon has focused on studying these systems from the perspective of developers. This study examines the impact of DPV expansion from the perspective of a fragile and inefficient power utility, Électricité du Liban. Specifically, this paper studies the economics and policy options of on-grid systems via a net-metering scheme. The analysis yields two primary recommendations: In the absence of tariff reform for cost recovery, DPV policies should promote self-consumption; and after cost recovery is achieved, DPV tariff should ensure an adequate price differential that balances the interests of EDL and prosumers.

黎巴嫩以前对分布式太阳能PV（DPV）系统的研究集中于从开发人员的角度研究这些系统。这项研究从脆弱而效率低下的电力公司Électricitédu Liban的角度研究了DPV扩展的影响。具体而言，本文通过网络计量方案研究了并网系统的经济和政策选择。该分析提出两个主要建议：在没有进行成本回收的关税改革的情况下，DPV政策应促进自我消费；在实现成本回收之后，DPV关税应确保适当的价格差异，以平衡EDL和生产者的利益。
