Modifies certain provisions relating to the means of energy production

Summary

The measure would require the state transportation agency and the highways commission to permit and set uniform rules for placing electric transmission facilities in highway rights‑of‑way, while also changing how nuclear power is treated in state energy purchases and adding extra credit for renewable energy stored in batteries. It would stop utilities from recovering nuclear‑related costs through special surcharges and let the public service commission approve limited zero‑emission credit programs. The changes would affect utilities, the state energy authority, and ratepayers.
