AI Summary

This bill requires interconnection between local distribution systems and agricultural self-generation facilities. It defines key terms such as "agricultural self-generation facility" (a renewable energy facility owned by an agricultural producer with a capacity of 100 kilowatts or less) and "local distribution utility" (the owner or operator of the local distribution system). The bill prohibits local distribution utilities from denying or refusing interconnection to these agricultural self-generation facilities, though the utilities can recover their costs for providing the interconnection. The bill aims to facilitate the integration of renewable energy generated by agricultural producers into the local electricity distribution system.
