Bill > HF2103

This bill provides $9,000,000 from the Minnesota state general fund to the Commissioner of Commerce, specifically to grant money to the Midwest Renewable Energy Tracking System (M-RETS) for developing technology that can track and enable tradable certificates for ammonia, hydrogen, and renewable energy. The bill includes two key reporting requirements: first, from January 1, 2026 to January 1, 2030, the grant recipient must submit reports to the Legislative Auditor detailing how the grant money was spent, and second, from January 1, 2030 to January 1, 2035, the recipient must report to the Commissioners of Commerce and Agriculture about the number of green ammonia certificates issued in Minnesota as a direct result of the grant. The purpose appears to be supporting the development of a tracking system for renewable energy and green hydrogen/ammonia certificates, which could help promote and validate green energy production in the state.
