Class I Thermal Renewable Energy Certificate Program
Introduction of Thermal RPS Program Development.
Laws of 2012, Chapter 272, SB 218-FN – FINAL VERSION amends the Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) law, RSA 362-F and creates a Class I sub-class for useful thermal renewable energy. Per Order No. 25,484 under Docket No. DE 13-021, the Commission delayed the start of the thermal subclass until 2014. The PUC is required to "establish procedures by which electricity and useful thermal energy production not tracked by ISO-New England from customer-sited sources, including behind the meter production, may be included within the certificate program, provided such sources are located within NH. RSA 362-F:6, II."
