I love this site!
2011 and not much has changed, although Creighton has a solar program in downtown Omaha now. I am going to send this to our legislators to show them how behind Nebraska is. With Iowa and Nebraska being the top ethanol producing states, it is time to get on board with all alternative energies.

I am writing to let people know about the Nebraska Solar Tour coming up in NE on October 3rd. It is part of the National Solar Tour, and will be a chance for people to tour energy efficient buildings and see renewable energy generation equipment in operation and visit with the owners of the equipment about their experiences with it.

The tour is being put together by the Nebraska Solar Energy Society, http://www.nebraskases.org, a non-profit education and research based group.

The tour is free! Please come to the tour and show your support of solar in NE, as well as gather information and become inspired. http://www.nebraskasolartour.org

Finally Nebraska has a Net Metering Law, our installers in Lincoln NE were very excited to see this, now if there were any real incentives from the NE Legislature.

This web page needs to be updated. NPPD finally passed a net metering rider in Sep 2008. http://www.dsireusa.org/library/includes/printincentive.cfm?incentive_code=NE06R

Basically from solar you get about $0.08/kWh in the summer and $0.035/kWh in the winter.

As far as I know though OPPD still does not offer net metering

Nebraska is so behind the times. The legislators make our state residents look like a bunch of idiots unconcerned about the environment. Alternate energy is a booming market and they are missing the bus.

When will the Nebraska legislatures get their heads out of their butts??
Or, the real question is when will the graft and payola be exposed and get Nebraska back into the 21st century when it comes to energy. Oh, and you thought only in New York and New Jersey are there payoffs?
