Amendment Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Amend House File 2530 as follows:
  1  2    #1.  Page 86, by inserting after line 14 the
  1  3 following:
  1  4    "4.  RENEWABLE ENERGY PORTFOLIO REQUIREMENTS.
  1  5    a.  REQUIREMENTS.  (1)  Commencing with calendar
  1  6 year 2006, an amount equal to four percent of the
  1  7 annual kilowatt-hours of competitive power supply
  1  8 services sold to end-use consumers by each licensed
  1  9 competitive electric service provider and services
  1 10 sold by each service provider under section 476B.8
  1 11 shall be attributable to renewable energy or renewable
  1 12 energy credits.  Commencing with calendar year 2009,
  1 13 the amount shall increase to six percent and,
  1 14 commencing with calendar year 2011, the amount shall
  1 15 increase to eight percent.  These requirements shall
  1 16 terminate after calendar year 2021.
  1 17    (2)  The renewable energy requirements under
  1 18 subparagraph (1) may be satisfied by a service
  1 19 provider purchasing competitively priced renewable
  1 20 energy from a renewable energy facility receiving
  1 21 funds under section 476B.13, subsection 4; by using
  1 22 renewable energy credits as provided in paragraph "b";
  1 23 or by using renewable energy from any other renewable
  1 24 energy facility in the continental United States,
  1 25 which use can be by displacement.
  1 26    (3)  Nothing in this subsection shall prevent the
  1 27 service providers subject to the renewable energy
  1 28 requirements under subparagraph (1) from electing to
  1 29 meet those requirements by voluntarily aggregating
  1 30 their individual purchases, sales, uses, and renewable
  1 31 credits.
  1 32    (4)  For the purpose of this subsection 4 and
  1 33 section 476B.13, subsection 4, the services sold
  1 34 pursuant to section 476B.8, subsection 4, by a
  1 35 delivery service provider that is a consumer-owned
  1 36 utility shall not be subject to the renewable energy
  1 37 portfolio requirements of this subsection.
  1 38    b.  RENEWABLE CREDITS.  The renewable energy
  1 39 portfolio requirements of paragraph "a" may be
  1 40 satisfied by a service provider, in whole or in part,
  1 41 by purchasing or otherwise acquiring renewable energy
  1 42 credits.  Such credits may be acquired after the end
  1 43 of a calendar year to satisfy the renewable energy
  1 44 portfolio requirements for that prior calendar year.
  1 45 The board shall propose rules by October 1, 2001, that
  1 46 establish the system of renewable energy credits.  The
  1 47 rules, at a minimum, shall provide for the following:
  1 48    (1)  Credits may be issued for each kilowatt-hour
  1 49 produced by a qualifying renewable energy facility
  1 50 located in this state or any other state in the
  2  1 continental United States, including such production
  2  2 by displacement.  Credits may be for more than one-
  2  3 year duration.  For purposes of this subparagraph,
  2  4 "qualifying renewable energy facility" shall be
  2  5 interpreted as broadly as practicable by the board.
  2  6    (2)  Credits shall be issued to any service
  2  7 provider subject to the renewable energy portfolio
  2  8 requirements of paragraph "a" that permits an eligible
  2  9 end-use consumer with a qualifying small renewable
  2 10 energy facility to use net billing.  For purposes of
  2 11 this subparagraph, "eligible end-use consumer" is
  2 12 limited to a residential, farm, or public school
  2 13 district end-use consumer.  Net billing means that the
  2 14 eligible end-use consumer pays the competitive
  2 15 electric service provider or provider of services
  2 16 under section 476B.8 only for the difference in an
  2 17 applicable billing period between the kilowatt-hours
  2 18 supplied to the end-use consumer by that service
  2 19 provider and the kilowatt-hours delivered to the
  2 20 delivery system by the eligible end-use consumer from
  2 21 a qualifying small renewable energy facility.  A
  2 22 qualifying small renewable energy facility is a
  2 23 facility that is no larger than one megawatt; is
  2 24 located on the property of the school district or the
  2 25 end-use consumer's farm or residence; serves only the
  2 26 electric energy needs of the school district, farm, or
  2 27 residence; and is operated in parallel with the
  2 28 delivery system.  Credits issued for such facilities
  2 29 shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent of
  2 30 nameplate capacity at one hundred percent
  2 31 availability.
  2 32    (3)  The owner of renewable energy credits may
  2 33 give, trade, or sell the credits to another person,
  2 34 including a service provider subject to the renewable
  2 35 energy portfolio requirements of paragraph "a".
  2 36    (4)  The board, at any time, may request and obtain
  2 37 from service providers subject to the renewable energy
  2 38 portfolio requirements of paragraph "a" such
  2 39 information as the board determines is necessary to
  2 40 monitor or enforce compliance with the renewable
  2 41 energy credit rules adopted pursuant to this paragraph
  2 42 "b".
  2 43    c.  REPORTS.  Commencing April 1, 2007, on or
  2 44 before April 1 of each year, a service provider
  2 45 subject to the renewable energy portfolio requirements
  2 46 of paragraph "a" shall file with the board a report
  2 47 for the immediately preceding calendar year, certified
  2 48 by a corporate officer, setting forth the total
  2 49 kilowatt-hour sales of the service provider to end-use
  2 50 consumers in this state and the percent of those
  3  1 kilowatt-hours attributable to renewable energy; the
  3  2 description, fuel type, and location of the renewable
  3  3 energy facilities used to satisfy the renewable energy
  3  4 portfolio requirements; the amount of any renewable
  3  5 energy credits that the service provider will use to
  3  6 satisfy the renewable energy portfolio requirements; a
  3  7 verified statement that the renewable energy and
  3  8 renewable energy credits used to satisfy the renewable
  3  9 energy portfolio requirements have not been used to
  3 10 serve or otherwise claimed as applicable to renewable
  3 11 energy sales requirements outside this state and have
  3 12 not been provided by renewable energy for which the
  3 13 costs have been recovered through charges provided for
  3 14 under section 476B.15, subsection 3, during the year.
  3 15 The board may require other pertinent information be
  3 16 included in the report.
  3 17    d.  SHORTFALLS.  The board shall propose rules by
  3 18 October 1, 2001, establishing a reasonable method and
  3 19 grace period after the end of a calendar year to
  3 20 enable a service provider subject to the renewable
  3 21 energy portfolio requirements of paragraph "a" to
  3 22 satisfy without penalty any shortfall in meeting its
  3 23 renewable energy portfolio requirements in the prior
  3 24 calendar year.  The board shall consider the
  3 25 provisions of section 476B.13, subsection 4, in the
  3 26 development of these rules.  The board may impose
  3 27 reasonable penalties pursuant to section 476B.20 after
  3 28 the expiration of the grace period established.
  3 29    e.  WAIVERS.  (1)  The board may waive all or part
  3 30 of the renewable energy portfolio requirements if the
  3 31 board finds any of the following:
  3 32    (a)  That extraordinary circumstances are present.
  3 33    (b)  That compliance with the requirements would
  3 34 limit the development of a competitive electric market
  3 35 in this state.
  3 36    (c)  That transaction costs associated with
  3 37 delivery of renewable energy, including but not
  3 38 limited to scheduling, nominating, balancing,
  3 39 dispatch, and financial settlement, make compliance
  3 40 with the requirements unreasonably uneconomic.
  3 41    (d)  That a consumer-owned utility has demonstrated
  3 42 that a statute or a contract in effect as of January
  3 43 1, 2000, precludes compliance.
  3 44    For purposes of this subparagraph (1),
  3 45 "extraordinary circumstances" includes, but is not
  3 46 limited to, a demonstration that a competitive
  3 47 electric service provider will serve a limited market
  3 48 by providing back-up power to end-use consumers
  3 49 receiving competitive power supply services from a
  3 50 different competitive electric service provider.  A
  4  1 waiver of the renewable energy portfolio requirements
  4  2 granted by the board shall be for no more than four
  4  3 years, but may be renewed by the board upon the
  4  4 expiration of the waiver.  In addition to other
  4  5 persons entitled to service by statute or rules, a
  4  6 person filing a request for a waiver or a renewal of a
  4  7 waiver shall serve a copy of the filing on the energy
  4  8 and geological resources division of the department of
  4  9 natural resources or its successor.
  4 10    (2)  The board shall reduce the amount of the
  4 11 renewable energy portfolio requirements in a specific
  4 12 year to the extent that the department of natural
  4 13 resources through the renewable energy and emissions
  4 14 reduction fund created by section 476B.13, subsection
  4 15 4, fails in that year to satisfy the mandates of that
  4 16 subsection.  Such reduction shall apply to all service
  4 17 providers that are subject to the renewable energy
  4 18 portfolio requirements of paragraph "a".
  4 19    f.  LEGISLATIVE REVIEW.  The general assembly shall
  4 20 review the requirements of this subsection if a
  4 21 federal renewable energy sales requirement becomes
  4 22 law."

  4 48    (3)  Subsidize investment in existing or proposed
  4 49 fossil-fueled generation facilities and in associated
  4 50 equipment in this state that will reduce emissions,
  5  1 including carbon dioxide emissions, utilizing
  5  2 techniques which may include co-firing of agricultural
  5  3 waste and crops in existing plants."
  5  4    #8.  By striking page 100, line 24, through page
  5  5 101, line 12, and inserting the following:
  5  6    "b.  MANDATED REQUIREMENTS.  (1)  The department of
  5  7 natural resources, utilizing the funding provided by
  5  8 this subsection, shall subsidize and otherwise ensure
  5  9 the development of Iowa-based renewable energy
  5 10 facilities that will offer renewable energy for
  5 11 purchase by service providers subject to the renewable
  5 12 energy portfolio requirements of section 476B.10,
  5 13 subsection 4, in an amount equal to four percent of
  5 14 all kilowatt-hours sold to end-use consumers in each
  5 15 of the calendar years 2006 through 2008, six percent
  5 16 of all kilowatt-hours sold to end-use consumers in
  5 17 each of the calendar years 2009 and 2010, and eight
  5 18 percent of all kilowatt-hours sold to end-use
  5 19 consumers in each of the calendar years 2011 through
  5 20 2021.  In determining the amount of incremental
  5 21 kilowatt-hours of renewable energy needed to satisfy
  5 22 the requirements of this paragraph, the department of
  5 23 natural resources shall assume that seven hundred
  5 24 seventeen million three hundred forty-nine thousand
  5 25 kilowatt-hours will be available from renewable energy
  5 26 facilities in existence prior to the effective date of
  5 27 this Act.  The department shall also utilize the
  5 28 funding provided by this subsection to subsidize and
  5 29 achieve quantifiable reductions in air emissions
  5 30 reported to the United States environmental protection
  5 31 agency and other government agencies for fossil-fueled
  5 32 generation in this state.
  5 33    (2)  An applicant awarded a grant, loan, incentive,
  5 34 or other subsidy under this subsection for the
  5 35 construction, expansion, repowering, or fuel
  5 36 substitution of a renewable energy facility must offer
  5 37 the resultant renewable energy first to service
  5 38 provider subject to the renewable energy portfolio
  5 39 requirements of section 476B.10, subsection 4, at
  5 40 prices competitive with the market prices for fossil-
  5 41 fueled generation to enable each service provider to
  5 42 satisfy such renewable energy portfolio requirements.
  5 43 The board shall propose rules by October 1, 2001,
  5 44 establishing the process governing offers and sales of
  5 45 such renewable energy to be used by applicants and
  5 46 those service providers subject to the renewable
  5 47 energy portfolio requirements of section 476B.10,
  5 48 subsection 4.  In overseeing the pricing of the
  5 49 renewable energy, the board shall recognize such
  5 50 factors as the time differentiation of prices, the
  6  1 delivery point into the integrated system, and the
  6  2 degrees of firmness of production and delivery.  The
  6  3 rules shall ensure that each such service provider has
  6  4 a reasonable opportunity to satisfy its renewable
  6  5 energy portfolio requirements entirely from renewable
  6  6 energy facilities receiving subsidies from the fund,
  6  7 if the service provider so chooses.  The oversight
  6  8 responsibility of the board and the obligation of an
  6  9 applicant awarded a grant, loan, incentive, or other
  6 10 subsidy to offer renewable energy at prices
  6 11 competitive with the market prices for fossil-fueled
  6 12 generation under this subparagraph (2) shall terminate
  6 13 upon a finding by the board that such oversight
  6 14 responsibility and obligations are not necessary to
  6 15 protect the interests of consumers.
  6 16    (3)  In any year that service providers subject to
  6 17 the renewable energy portfolio requirements of section
  6 18 476B.10, subsection 4, do not purchase all of the
  6 19 renewable energy offered by an applicant awarded a
  6 20 grant, loan, incentive, or other subsidy under this
  6 21 subsection, the applicant may sell the excess in the
  6 22 wholesale market or, if the applicant is a licensed
  6 23 competitive electric service provider, in the retail
  6 24 market.
  6 25    (4)  In any year that the total renewable energy
  6 26 kilowatt-hours made available under subparagraph (1)
  6 27 are insufficient to satisfy the mandated requirements
  6 28 of that subparagraph, the board shall reduce the
  6 29 renewable energy portfolio requirements of section
  6 30 476B.10, subsection 4, to the extent of the
  6 31 insufficiency.  The reduction shall apply to all
  6 32 service providers subject to the renewable energy
  6 33 portfolio requirements.  The department of natural
  6 34 resources shall include in its annual report required
  6 35 by paragraph "g" for that year an identification of
  6 36 the amount of the renewable energy insufficiency, the
  6 37 reasons for the insufficiency, and a detailed plan for
  6 38 avoiding a recurrence of an insufficiency utilizing
  6 39 the available funding.
  6 40    (5)  The board and the department of natural
  6 41 resources shall adopt rules as necessary for the
  6 42 implementation of the respective duties of the board
  6 43 and department."

  9  2    i.  INTERIM FUNDING.  (1)  An incumbent provider
  9  3 that is an electric company shall begin collecting
  9  4 funds for remittance to the renewable energy and
  9  5 emissions reduction fund as of the date the incumbent
  9  6 provider has fully recovered accumulated deferred
  9  7 costs associated with electric energy efficiency plans
  9  8 pursuant to section 476.6, subsection 19.  From the
  9  9 date such accumulated deferred costs have been fully
  9 10 recovered until October 1, 2002, the amount collected
  9 11 shall equal the amount of accumulated deferred costs
  9 12 included in each electric company's rates and charges
  9 13 prior to the date of full recovery and shall be
  9 14 apportioned to customers on a monthly basis in the
  9 15 same manner as those deferred electric energy
  9 16 efficiency costs.  All moneys collected pursuant to
  9 17 this paragraph shall be remitted monthly to the
  9 18 treasurer of state and deposited in the renewable
  9 19 energy and emissions reduction fund.  The moneys
  9 20 deposited in the fund are appropriated for the
  9 21 purposes of this subsection and subsection 5.  The
  9 22 treasurer of state shall make disbursements from the
  9 23 fund as directed by the department of natural
  9 24 resources or the board, and in accordance with this
  9 25 paragraph.
  9 26    (2)  The board may direct all incumbent providers
  9 27 that are electric companies to advance to the
  9 28 treasurer of state, on an as needed basis, a maximum
  9 29 of two million five hundred thousand dollars to fund
  9 30 the needs assessment required under subsection 5.  The
  9 31 board may direct all or a portion of these amounts to
  9 32 be advanced at any time after the effective date of
  9 33 this Act.  An electric company advancing funds for the
  9 34 needs assessment shall be reimbursed from funds
  9 35 collected pursuant to this paragraph, and interest
  9 36 shall be paid on any funds advanced at the rate of
  9 37 twelve percent per annum.
  9 38    Moneys deposited in the fund pursuant to this
