Connecticut Bill Would Amend Statute To Allow For Use of Supplier Consolidated Billing
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by EC Infosystems, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
A proposed bill has been filed in Connecticut (H.B. No. 6239) that would provide for the introduction of supplier consolidated billing as a billing option available to suppliers
Connecticut is unique in that under current statute, supplier consolidated billing could not be implemented under PURA's own motion.
H.B. No. 6239 would provide that, "the general statutes be amended to allow electric suppliers to
provide direct billing and collection services for all components of
electric service and allow electric suppliers to own and operate clean
energy facilities, contract with third parties to build, own or operate
clean energy facilities and contract with subscribers for subscriptions
to a clean energy facility."
A Statement of Purpose for the bill says that the bill is designed to, "allow electric suppliers to provide direct billing and collection
services for all components of electric service and to own and operate
clean energy facilities, contract with third parties to build, own or
operate clean energy facilities and contract with subscribers for
subscriptions to a clean energy facility."
Edward Levene, Vice President at Levco Tech Inc., one of the principal forces behind the bill, encouraged those in favor of supplier consolidated billing and on-bill community solar billing to support the bill. Further information on the bill and how to support it can be provided by contacting Levene at ed.levene@levcopower.com or 203.614.1485
Levene said that similar legislation is being introduced in other states, such as Pennsylvania, and, for community solar, will be pursued in states without electric choice as well
