30 | - | (d) When any person, firm or corporation proposes to enter into a contract to sell energy and capacity as a private power producer, an electric public service company, municipal electric energy cooperative or municipal electric utility shall respond promptly to all requests and offers and negotiate in good faith to arrive at a contract which fairly reflects the provisions of this section and the anticipated avoided costs over the life of the contract. If any such company, cooperative or utility does not enter into such a contract within ninety days after receipt of a written contract proposal from such a person, firm or corporation, the company, cooperative or utility shall notify such person, firm or corporation, in writing, of the reasons why the contract proposal was rejected. Upon application by a private power producer, the department may approve a contract which provides for payment of less than the anticipated avoided costs if, considering all of the provisions, the contract is at least as favorable to the private power producer as a contract providing for the full avoided costs. The contract may extend for a period of not more than thirty years at the option of the private power producer if it has a generating facility with a capacity of at least one hundred kilowatts. | |
