The amendment
removes the requirement that a biomass generator facility that has not been
operating as a result of economic hardship must cease to operate for at least
90 days before becoming eligible to be counted towards a competitive
electricity provider's new renewable capacity resource requirement. Any
additional costs to the Public Utilities Commission can be absorbed within
existing budgeted resources. |
