Wyoming counties can nominate industrial sovereign zones through resolutions that define boundaries, show natural gas access, and provide required information. The Wyoming Energy Authority must establish a zone when lower gas prices or other factors create a manufacturing opportunity. Covered products come from chemically changing natural gas in Wyoming, including hydrogen and ammonia. The authority can shrink boundaries, but expanding them requires each affected county’s formal consent. It must first consider the Opal gas hub if gas prices there are lower than other U.S. sales.
Developers making covered natural-gas products in designated zones can ask the Wyoming Energy Authority for licensing and compliance help. The Department of Environmental Quality must prioritize and speed up their environmental permits and licenses. Its director can also create a process before permit applications, without weakening state permitting authority, public health, or environmental protections. Qualifying nonmineral processing facilities in zones are exempt from specified industrial-siting fees and certification steps. Facilities in the law’s listed information-reporting category must still provide the required information to the state.
Manufacturers get Wyoming sales and use tax exemptions on qualifying machinery purchases and leases. Machinery must be used in Wyoming mainly and directly to make tangible goods. This general manufacturing exemption lasts through December 31, 2042. A separate exemption covers machinery used mainly and directly to make covered natural-gas products in industrial sovereign zones. The zone-specific exemption has no stated end date.
The law provides $180,000 from Wyoming’s general fund to the Wyoming Energy Authority for staff costs. Money is available from the law’s effective date through June 30, 2028. It can pay only necessary implementation personnel costs, including contracted services, and cannot be transferred or used for another purpose. Unspent, uncommitted funds return to the state on June 30, 2028. The funding is not intended to enter the authority’s standard budget for the next two-year budget period.
The Wyoming Energy Authority runs an optional certification program for Wyoming-made products created by chemically changing natural gas. Its gold standard label requires methane intensity of 0.2% or less, measuring methane emissions against gas processed. Participating producers can face annual fees capped at program costs, which the authority can keep to run the program. The authority can suspend or revoke certification when a producer fails to meet its requirements.
