Modifies the definition of renewable energy resources
HB 1902 updates Missouri's legal definition of "renewable energy resources" for regulatory purposes. It specifically lists eligible sources like wind, solar, small-scale hydropower (under 10 MW without new dams), waste-to-energy processes, and dedicated biomass crops, while explicitly excluding nuclear power and pumped-storage hydropower. This definition directly affects electric utilities, the Public Service Commission, and the Department of Economic Development when implementing renewable energy programs. The bill makes no new requirements but clarifies which energy sources qualify under existing law.
