The Honorable James P. Metzen
President of the Senate
The Honorable Margaret Anderson
Kelliher
Speaker of the House of
Representatives
We, the
undersigned conferees for S. F. No. 3046 report that we have
agreed upon the items in dispute and recommend as follows:
That the
House recede from its amendment and that S. F. No. 3046 be
further amended as follows:
Delete
everything after the enacting clause and insert:
"Section
1. Minnesota Statutes 2008, section
216B.241, is amended by adding a subdivision to read:
Subd. 5c. Large
solar electric generating plant. (a)
For the purpose of this subdivision:
(1)
"project" means a solar electric generation project consisting of
arrays of solar photovoltaic cells with a capacity of up to two megawatts
located on the site of a closed landfill in Olmsted county owned by the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency; and
(2)
"cooperative electric association" means a generation and
transmission cooperative electric association that has a member distribution
cooperative association to which it provides wholesale electric service in
whose service territory a project is located.
(b) A
cooperative electric association may elect to count all of its purchases of
electric energy from a project toward only one of the following:
(1) its energy-savings
goal under subdivision 1c; or
(2) its
energy objective or standard under section 216B.1691.
(c) A
cooperative electric association may include in its conservation plan purchases
of electric energy from a project. The
cost-effectiveness of project purchases may be determined by a different
standard than for other energy conservation improvements under this section if
the commissioner determines that doing so is in the public interest in order to
encourage solar energy. The kilowatt
hours of solar energy purchased by a cooperative electric association from a
project may count for up to 33 percent of its one percent savings goal under
subdivision 1c or up to 22 percent of its 1.5 percent savings goal under that
section. Expenditures made by a cooperative
association for the purchase of energy from a project may not be used to meet
the revenue expenditure requirements of subdivisions 1a and 1b.
EFFECTIVE DATE. This
section is effective the day following final enactment."
Delete the
title and insert:
"A
bill for an act relating to energy; providing for large solar energy electric
generation demonstration conservation improvement project; amending Minnesota
Statutes 2008, section 216B.241, by adding a subdivision."
We request the adoption of this report and repassage of the
bill.
