Earlier:
Text for an adopted amendment to HB 11, which as first reported by EnergyChoiceMatters.com yesterday would provide that TDUs may run an emergency load management program, has been posted
As previously noted, HB 11 was passed to engrossment and is awaiting a third reading and final passage
During floor discussion of the amendment, the program was described as being available to "commercial" customers, but the text actually provides that the program may be offered to all non-residential customers
The amendment states, "Notwithstanding any other provision of this subtitle, the commission [PUC]
shall allow a transmission and distribution utility to design and operate a load
management program for non-residential customers to be used during an extreme
weather emergency or times of constraint in its service territory, in addition to and
separate from any load management program operated as part of its portfolio of
energy efficiency programs."
"A transmission and distribution utility implementing
a load management program under this subsection shall be permitted to recover
the reasonable and necessary costs of the load management program under
Chapter 36," the adopted amendment states
"A load management program operated under this subsection is not
considered a competitive service," the adopted amendment states
