Biomass definition modification provision

This bill (SF 1432) amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 216B.1691, by updating the definition of "biomass" for energy purposes. It clarifies that eligible biomass includes wood waste, landfill gas, anaerobic digesters, and specific wastewater by-products, while explicitly excluding wastewater sludge incineration. The change directly affects electric utilities that generate power from biomass sources and seek renewable energy credits under state law. The key mechanism is a precise definition to ensure consistent application of biomass eligibility in energy programs.
