Minnesota Feed-In Tariff Bill Introduced

Minnesotawindmills Minnesota is the third state in the Midwest (after Michigan and Illinois) to introduce Feed-In legislation! Interestingly, "unlike other states considering feed-in tariffs, Minnesota's proposed law limits feed-in tariffs to "community-based" projects connected at distribution voltages. Nevertheless, the definition of what constitutes a community-based project is broad and can include projects with outside ownership up to 49% of the equity." To learn more about the specifics of the bill, please click on this link.
