Bill > SB415

This bill, a recommendation from the Commission on Electric Utility Regulation, increases the grant amount for renewable energy projects developed on brownfields, which are properties whose redevelopment might be complicated by the presence of hazardous substances. Specifically, the bill doubles the grant amount from $100 to $200 per kilowatt of nameplate capacity (the maximum power output) for renewable energy sources located on brownfields, funded through the Virginia Brownfield and Coal Mine Renewable Energy Grant Fund. This fund supports projects on brownfields or previously coal-mined lands, aiming to revitalize these areas for renewable energy generation or storage.
