Summary
The bill requires retail electric suppliers to obtain commission approval for tariffs before serving data center customers whose combined contract capacity exceeds 100 megawatts. Those tariffs must include minimum contract lengths, early‑termination fees, load‑ramp terms and financial guarantees, and must allocate new infrastructure costs so other ratepayers are not harmed. Existing loads above 100 MW are exempt unless the customer expands beyond that limit.
