Kansas solar industry wants to make it easier to generate electricity and transfer power to grid

Mark Horst, owner of King Solar in Yoder, Michelle Milburn, of Stanion Wholesale Electric, and Jessica Lucas, lobbyist for the Clean Energy Business Council, say Kansas should end the utility monopoly on power purchase agreements with businesses, churches, schools and others who want electricity from solar systems on their property but lack investment capital to build. Opening the market, they say, would allow developers to construct facilities and deliver power at lower rates.
