5 MW per year
 

When speaking with DEQ Staff on Wednesday, Dec. 1st about the Biomass Energy Generator General Permit for a Pilot Test Facility, I was told that the Technical Advisory Committee recommended that the generator label should be 5 MW, yet when reading the regulation, the energy limit is 5 MW per year, indicating a generator label of 570.78 kW (Proof:  5,000,000 kWh per year / 8,760 hours per year).   Which figure is actually being proposed?  Afterall, there is a huge difference.
