Staff Analysis of the Legislation

This clarifies that a nonresidential customer of an electrical corporation may request the breakdown in the shortest interval available usage data. Any costs associated with providing this data will be passed onto the customer.  The purpose is to help nonresidential customers better understand the amount of energy use, the timing of the utilization, and demand charges being charged the customer.  This information would allow the customer to adjust energy use to reduce costs.   

Municipal Impact: Municipalities may use this data to better understand any demand charges associated with buildings or facilities managed by the municipality.  If possible, the municipality can make better electrical use decisions based on this data.  

ULCT Action/Future Trend: ULCT monitored this legislation.
