<p>These regulations clarify that the cost paid to a building owner for a utility provided by the building owner is considered to be paid directly by the tenant, and not by or through the owner of the building, if the utility is generated from renewable sources and if the payments are made under an arrangement that would otherwise satisfy the requirements to be an actual-consumption submetering arrangement.</p>
