Vermont House bill proposes renewables goal of 25% by 2025

The Vermont state legislature committee on Natural Resources and Energy introduced a bill to the House on March 15 relating to the conservation of energy and the generation of electricity in the state through renewable resources. In addition to proposing a goal of producing 25% of the state’s energy with renewable energy sources by 2025, the bill seeks to establish a “wind-based electric generation facility tax.”

Furthermore, a revision has been included in the bill to allow net metering for systems up to 250 kW and to set a 2% cap on the amount of net-metered energy companies must accommodate.
