This bill establishes definitions and regulations regarding electric service for agricultural self-generation facilities in Nebraska. It defines key terms such as "agricultural self-generation facility," which refers to a facility producing electricity from renewable sources like methane, wind, solar, biomass, hydropower, or geothermal energy, and outlines specific criteria for these facilities, including a capacity limit of 100 kilowatts and requirements for preventing backfeed into the local distribution system. The bill also clarifies the roles of local distribution utilities and owner-generators, ensuring that the latter can receive electric service without denial from the utility.

Additionally, the bill mandates that local distribution utilities cannot refuse service to customers owning agricultural self-generation facilities, while still allowing these utilities to set rates and fees to cover their costs. Owner-generators are required to notify the local distribution utility of their intent to install such facilities, ensuring compliance with interconnection requirements and safety standards. Overall, the legislation aims to promote renewable energy use in agriculture while establishing a clear framework for service provision and regulatory compliance.
