AI Summary
This bill requires that any plan to decommission a renewable energy facility, such as a solar farm or wind turbine, must include provisions for recycling its component parts to the greatest extent possible, as determined by the Department of Environmental Quality, unless those parts must be disposed of differently according to specific environmental regulations. The owner of the renewable energy facility will be responsible for all decommissioning costs, including the recycling of its components and infrastructure. Additionally, the bill renumbers existing sections of Louisiana law to accommodate this new provision, changing the headings for parts related to batteries, wind energy, and solar power generation facilities to reflect their new numerical order.
