Relating to the sharing and protection of certain utility proprietary customer information.

HB 5145 establishes rules for sharing basic customer contact information (name, phone, email, address) between retail electric providers and electric utilities during service emergencies. It requires retail providers to share this information within 48 hours of a utility's request - without needing customer permission - for emergency communication, service interruptions, or restoration. The bill mandates security measures like encryption for handling this data and limits retention to only what's necessary for emergency purposes. It applies specifically to electric utilities and retail providers, taking effect September 1, 2025.
