Introduced
by
To streamline state regulations so as to facilitate the use of “advanced waste energy recovery” methods, and define fuel manufactured from municipal solid waste and other sources as "renewable" for purposes of a <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2007-SB-213">2008 law</a> mandating that 10 percent of the electricity sold by utilities must come from “renewable” sources. This would also apply to energy from technologies that use "pyrolysis" to convert many agricultural, industrial, and municipal solid waste into energy.
