Deliberations have begun on reconciling differences between the House and Senate energy priority bills, House Bill 15 and Senate Bill 2. These pro-customer bills both propose to enact significant energy policy reform favoring customers over utilities by including repeal of costly subsidies that manufacturers are currently forced to pay and putting an end to unneeded riders on electricity bills.
While the final details of the legislation are being ironed out, manufacturers are encouraged to take action and urge legislators to vote yes. It is anticipated that the final bill will be sent to the Governor’s desk by the end of April. 4/2/2025
