MODERATE

The bill was amended to restructure the discount rules for new electrical loads, clarifying that larger projects (over 10 megawatts) now qualify for a 35% discount instead of a calculated rate, while smaller projects (300 kW to 10 MW) retain a 35% discount with a specific revenue floor. The amendment also updated the definition of 'variable cost' to include specific market prices and operational expenses, and refined the language regarding economic development incentives to ensure consistency with the bill's intent.

Scope change

The bill's scope regarding discount eligibility for large industrial loads was modified to provide a fixed discount percentage rather than a variable one, simplifying the application process for projects over 10 megawatts.

ELIGIBILITY

Changed the discount rule for loads between 10 and 75 megawatts from a calculated percentage to a fixed 35% discount, aligning it with the rate for smaller loads.

Adjusted the load threshold for the second discount tier from 'not more than seventy-five megawatts' to 'less than seventy-five megawatts' to clarify the upper limit.

DEFINITION

Refined the calculation of 'variable cost' to explicitly include energy/capacity market prices and specific operations and maintenance expenses.

REQUIREMENT

Revised the text regarding economic development incentives to ensure the requirement for receiving such incentives is clearly stated as a condition for eligibility.
