~j <br />Elk River <br />Municipal Utilities <br />13069 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 430 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0430 <br />April 7, 2008 <br />To: Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br />Jerry Takle <br />John Dietz <br />Jerry Gumphrey <br />From: Bryan Adams <br />Subject: Cogeneration Agreement <br />Phone: 763.441.2020 <br />Fax: 763.441.8099 <br />We have a couple of small electric generators on our system that operate intermittently. As the <br />renewable energy fad becomes more popular with other technologies, we will see more of the <br />smaller electric generators on our system. The Public Utilities Commission (PUC) has <br />developed a uniform statewide contract for small cogeneration projects less than. 40KW that <br />utilizes net metering. Although the Elk River Municipal Utilities does not fall under the PUC <br />guidelines, we should have a contract f`or such applications. <br />The attached contract is the PUC contract with minor corrections including Elk River Municipal <br />Utilities Commission substituted for Public Utilities Commission. Staff recommends adoption of <br />this blanket agreement. <br />
