HB 1884 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Creates new provisions for wind energy conversion systems

HB 1884 requires developers, owners, or operators of wind energy conversion systems (facilities with five or more 50-foot-tall turbines or taller) in Missouri to install FAA-approved light-mitigating technology systems to reduce aviation obstruction lighting impacts. New projects must comply after August 28, 2026, while existing systems must install by August 28, 2034, with both having 24 months after FAA approval to complete installation. Non-compliance incurs daily fines of $5,000 per turbine until installation is complete. The bill places all installation costs and compliance responsibilities on the wind energy facility operators.
