Introduced by: Thomas Davis Rust | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Renewable energy portfolio standard program; eligible energy. Provides that renewable energy that is purchased by a participating utility under an agreement executed on or after July 1, 2013, will count toward meeting the RPS Goals of the renewable energy portfolio standard program only if the agreement expressly transfers ownership of renewable attributes, in addition to ownership of the energy, to the participating utility. The bill also provides that renewable energy generated by the utility will be counted toward meeting the RPS Goals if it is from a facility in which the public utility owns at least a 49 percent interest that is located in the Commonwealth, in the interconnection region of the regional transmission entity of which the utility is a member, or in a control area adjacent to such interconnection region. Renewable energy represented by renewable energy certificates will continue to be eligible to be counted toward meeting the RPS Goals. This bill is identical to SB 1259.
