LB20

Nebraska LB20 requires local distribution utilities to provide electric service to customers with agricultural self-generation facilities.

Nebraska LB20 mandates that local distribution utilities must offer electric service to customers who own agricultural self-generation facilities. These facilities must use renewable energy sources, be located on the same premises as the customer's electric account, and prevent backfeed of electricity to the local distribution system. The bill also ensures that such facilities are not used for net metering. Customers with these facilities must adhere to the interconnection requirements, safety standards, electric rates, and service agreements of the local distribution utility.
