Summary
The bill creates a Certified Microgrid Program that designates certain microgrid districts and high‑impact data centers as “certified.” Once certified, the state’s Department of Commerce will help them develop and operate, and local governments cannot use zoning, permitting, or other regulations to block or limit these projects. The projects must still pay ordinary business taxes, utility fees and receive standard municipal services.
