AN ACT ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO STUDY ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION COMPANY ACCOUNTABILITY AND ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION COMPETITION AND INFRASTRUCTURE.

HB 5923 establishes a task force to study electric distribution companies in Connecticut. The task force will examine ways to increase accountability to customers, explore introducing competition in electric distribution services, and evaluate the costs of acquiring infrastructure from these companies. It will specifically assess whether acquiring infrastructure is necessary to maintain grid reliability. The bill does not make immediate policy changes but directs the task force to provide recommendations after its study. This affects electric distribution companies and their ratepayers (customers).
