Data Center Amendments.

Summary

The bill defines a “large‑load data center” as a facility using more than 20 megawatts of electricity and obligates electric utilities to file a tariff for such customers with the state Utilities Commission. The tariff must make the data center cover all capital and operating costs and include protections—like a 10‑year contract, an 85% take‑or‑pay clause, and financial assurances—to prevent other customers from bearing higher rates. Utilities cannot serve these centers after Jan. 1, 2028 unless the tariff is approved.
