The PublicUtility Regulatory Policies Act PURPA is a law, passed in 1978 by the United States Congress as part of the National Energy Act . It is meant to promote greater use of domestic renewable energy . The law forced regulated, natural monopoly Electric utility electric utilities to buy power from other more efficient producers, if that cost was less than the utility s own avoided cost rate to the consumer the avoided cost rate was the additional costs that the electric utility would incur if it generated the required power itself, or if available, could purchase its demand requirements from another source. At the time generally, where demand was growing, this was considered to be the construction and fossil fuel costs incurred in the operation of another thermal power plant . This free market approach presented investment opportunity and government encouragement for more development of environment friendly, renewable energy projects and technologies the law created a market in which non utility Independent Power Producer s developed, and some energy market players Enron scandal failed .
