What it does

The Co-Location Energy Act would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to permit solar or wind energy projects on existing federal oil, gas, coal, and geothermal leases, provided the leaseholder consents. It also allows evaluation of these leased areas for renewable energy development under the same consent requirement. The bill requires the Secretary to assess within 180 days whether such renewable energy activities qualify for categorical exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act and to issue rules to implement the program.
