Definition of large energy facility modified.
HF 2248 amends Minnesota Statutes section 216B.2421 to add a new definition for "large energy facility" under subsection (9). The change specifically includes facilities designed to convert materials into combustible fuel with a processing capacity exceeding 75 tons per hour. This definition affects facilities that produce fuel from materials like biomass or waste, requiring them to meet the "large energy facility" threshold under Minnesota law. The bill does not alter existing definitions for power plants, transmission lines, pipelines, or other energy infrastructure categories.
