                                                   Quick Facts on State Solar Energy Policy as of December 2009
                                                   A state renewable portfolio standard (RPS) that includes a solar set-aside requires a percentage of the
                                                   state's electricity be generated from solar resources. An RPS can also include a solar multiplier that
                                                   gives additional credit in meeting the RPS for solar projects or require an increase in distributed
                                                   generation (i.e., electricity generation close to the point of use), which  can spur solar development.
                                                   Policy driven demand for electricity generated from solar resources may increase the viability of PV
                                                   solar generation at a site that would otherwise not be considered viable based on solar resource
                                                   availability.

                                               At this time it is uncertain from which
                                               states KS can purchase renewable
                                               energy credits.
