A bill now being debated in the Vermont legislature aims spur the development of energy storage in the state.
The bill, H 501, is sponsored by Rep. Laura Sibilia (I), would require the state’s Department of Public Service (DPS) to “develop policy recommendations and targets” that would increase electricity storage capacity in the state.
The bill had originally called for the DPS to look at setting up energy storage goals, but that language was modified in committee, according to the Rutland Herald.
