| Critical Information |
In May 2010, the Oklahoma Legislature passed House Bill 3028, which established a renewable energy goal for electric utilities. The goal calls for 15 percent of the total installed generation capacity in Oklahoma to be derived from renewable sources or energy efficiency by 2015. It also requires state regulators to develop a state transmission grid expansion plan to accommodate distributed renewable generation. There are no interim targets and the goal does not extend past 2015. Eligible renewable energy resources include hydropower, landfill gas, solar, and wind. Energy efficiency can also be used to meet up to 25 percent of the goal. Distributed generation is eligible provided it uses an eligible renewable energy resource where the generating facility or any integrated cluster of such facilities has an installed generating capacity of not more than five megawatts. |

| Additional Information | Each utility in Oklahoma that owns or operates electricity generation facilities must file a report with the Corporation Commission by March 1 of each year. The report must document the total installed capacity of all its generation facilities, the number of kilowatt hours generated by each facility and the source of energy for each facility. The law also requires the utilities to file a report with the Corporation Commission on March 1 of each year detailing and quantifying the energy efficiency programs they have administered. |
