Advocates of turning cow manure and other waste into energy
are backing a bill introduced in the Pennsylvania House that would forbid
putting caps on how much electricity those systems can sell to the grid.
The bill is aimed at a proposal still being developed by the
Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission meant to limit reimbursements to customers
who generate power from alternative sources — a dairy farmer with a methane
digester, for example, or a homeowner with solar panels on the roof.
