SB 948 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 66 (Public Utilities) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in powers and duties, further providing for data to be supplied by electric utilities.

SB 948 requires Pennsylvania electric distribution companies to annually report specific data to the state utility commission about their ability to manage emergency power reductions (load shedding). The bill mandates details on how load shedding impacts different customer groups, technical limitations, identification of vital customers (like those needing medical equipment), and measures to minimize disruptions for critical facilities. The commission must then compile an annual report summarizing this data for lawmakers, the governor, and consumer advocates. This bill directly affects all electric distribution companies operating in Pennsylvania, focusing on transparency during grid emergencies without requiring the commission to approve utility plans.
