AN ACT CONCERNING THE LEGISLATIVE COMMISSIONERS' RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TECHNICAL REVISIONS TO STATUTES CONCERNING ENERGY AND TECHNOLOGY.
HB 5246 makes minor technical updates to Connecticut's energy and technology statutes. It adjusts deadlines for electric distribution companies to share regulatory evaluations with the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, ensures certain financing orders and transition assessments cannot be altered, and mandates annual reports on energy efficiency metrics. These changes directly affect electric distribution companies, the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and the Office of Consumer Counsel. The bill updates legal language without altering substantive policy and takes effect upon passage.
