Summary
The law directs the Public Service Commission to examine electric utility agreements with large load data centers—customers that demand at least 150 MW of peak power and operate solely as data processing facilities. The review must confirm that those contracts provide positive benefits to other retail electricity customers. This oversight is intended to protect the broader rate‑paying public.
