AN ACT CONCERNING THE DEFINITION OF CLASS I RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES.

SB 96 redefines "Class I renewable energy source" in state law to include conventional hydropower facilities and nuclear power facilities. This change directly affects energy providers and programs that use this classification, such as those qualifying for renewable energy credits or incentives. The bill’s key mechanism is simply updating the legal definition without creating new requirements or funding. It does not alter existing renewable energy programs but adjusts which energy sources qualify under current frameworks. The bill focuses solely on definitional clarity, not policy implementation.
