PUBLIC UTILITIES -- Adds to existing law to provide for competitive procurement of electric services and electric ratepayer protection.
Committee: State Affairs
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
▶ Show statement of purpose▼ Hide statement of purpose
This legislation provides that entities which need more than 10 megawatts of power from a service provider such as a utility must pay the full cost of the energy generated. If an entity chooses it may directly contract or otherwise obtain energy from a third party. The intent of this legislation is to ensure that those entities that cause additional energy to be required, pay for that energy. Thus, customers of the service provider are not burdened with rate increases or expense since the cost of the new generation is allocated solely to the entity which caused the need for the new generation.
FISCAL NOTE
▶ Show fiscal note▼ Hide fiscal note
This legislation causes no increase or decrease in revenue, or additional expenditure of funds at the state or local level of government; therefore, this legislation has no fiscal impact.
