A Cole County judge has set aside his earlier ruling that declared solar rebates in Missouri to be unconstitutional.
The rebates were part of a renewable energy ballot initiative passed by Missouri voters in 2008.
Circuit Judge Daniel Green’s initial ruling in June stated that the $2 per-watt solar rebate was essentially a seizure of private property from St. Louis-based Ameren Missouri. But he has temporarily vacated that ruling to allow other interested parties to file briefs in the case.
