Description
Electric utilities; renewable energy portfolio standard program. Eliminates the double credit provided for renewable energy generation from facilities fueled primarily by animal waste. The measure also limits a utility's ability to apply excess renewable energy to the requirements of any future RPS Goals to the two calendar years after the renewable energy was generated or the renewable energy certificates were created, except that a utility may apply renewable energy certificates it acquired prior to January 1, 2014. Finally, it states that it is in the public interest for utilities to achieve the RPS Goals. Read the Bill »
