Summary

The bill creates a special category for generators that operate completely off the state grid and begin service after Oct. 1, 2026. Those providers are freed from the usual public‑utility regulations, but must still follow the certificate of public convenience and necessity requirements when building a plant. If they later connect to the grid or cross state lines, they lose the exemption.
