Memorials, Recognition - TVA-affiliated distributors -
This is a joint resolution (HJR 77), not a bill, commending TVA-affiliated distributors for efforts to add power generation capacity. It recognizes that these distributors - electric cooperatives and municipal utilities purchasing power from TVA - can generate up to 10% of their own electricity demand, supporting grid stability and local economic growth. The resolution formally praises these ongoing efforts but does not create new laws or change existing policies. It was unanimously adopted by the Tennessee House of Representatives in February 2025.
