An Act establishing an extended producer responsibility program for offshore wind energy equipment

This bill requires offshore wind energy companies operating in Massachusetts to manage the end-of-life recycling and disposal of their equipment, including turbines, blades, and components. It establishes annual recycling targets for materials like composites and metals, and mandates that companies designate a Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) to handle collection, recycling, and compliance. The PRO must sign binding agreements with the state, and obligations continue even if the original company dissolves. This program applies directly to offshore wind developers and manufacturers subject to Massachusetts taxation under specific chapters.
