An act relating to defining electricity generating facilities
House message: Governor vetoed bill on June 17, 2026
Summary
The bill changes Vermont’s definition of an electricity‑generating “plant” so that multiple renewable units using the same technology on the same or neighboring land are treated as one facility. It includes exceptions for individual net‑metering, multi‑owner net‑metering in common‑interest communities, and co‑located projects with separate grid connections or capacity caps. The change would affect how utilities, developers, and the Public Utility Commission report and regulate renewable projects.
