Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

1 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Longer payback for school energy contracts

The law raises the maximum term for school energy performance contracts to 25 years, up from 18. Contractors must guarantee that project costs are recovered from the district’s energy savings during the contract. Districts can spread costs over more years, which may ease annual budgets. The change takes effect immediately.
