Environment and Energy Committee Vote / March 19, 2015

SF 1431: Renewable energy provisions in the Omnibus Energy Bill

Every year, Minnesota imports $18 billion worth of energy from other states and countries. The Senate Omnibus Energy bill includes two proposals that will create more locally produced energy and add to Minnesota’s already robust clean energy sector. First, the bill will improve our state’s Renewable Energy Standard (RES) to 40 percent by 2030. Second, the bill will increase our yearly energy savings goal from 1.5 to 2 percent.

What Would Happen?

The bill moves on to the Senate floor.

The bill does not move on and the clean energy proposals are not voted on by the whole Senate.

How The Committee Voted

The bill moves on to the Senate floor.
