Senate Bill 376 became law on August 28, 2009 as § 393.1075
3. It shall be the policy of the state to value demand-side
investments equal to traditional investments in supply and delivery
infrastructure and allow recovery of all reasonable and prudent costs
of delivering cost-effective
cost effective demand-side
demand side programs.
programs In support of this
policy, the commission shall:
(1) Provide timely cost recovery for utilities;
(2) Ensure that utility financial incentives are aligned with helping
customers use energy more efficiently and in a manner that sustains
or enhances utility customers’ incentives to use energy more
efficiently; and
(3) Provide timely earnings opportunities associated with costeffective measurable and verifiable efficiency savings.
4. The commission shall permit electric corporations to implement
commission approved demand-side

demand side programs proposed pursuant to
this section with a goal of achieving all cost-effective demand-side

energy services that are safe, reliable, and efficient, at just
and reasonable rates,

consistent with state energy and environmental policies. …
(A) Consider and analyze demand-side

subject to compliance with all legal mandates that may affect
the selection of utility electric energy resources in the

Missouri’s Renewable Energy
Standard
d d – A Legall Mandate
d
On November 4, 2008 voters in Missouri enacted Proposition C (§ 393.1020), a
mandatory renewable energy standard (electricity production from solar thermal,
photovoltaics, methane from landfills, wind, biomass, hydroelectric, and fuel
cells using renewable fuels). Minimum annual electricity sales from renewable
electricity

„
„
„
„
2% from 2011 to 2013 (0.04% solar)
5% from 2014 to 2017 (0.1% solar)
10% from 2018 to 2020 (0.2% solar)
15% for 2021 and thereafter (0.3% solar)
Additional key provisions:
„
„
Tradable renewable energy credits (RECs)
Cost cap of 1% of retail rates
