Providing electricity service to large energy use facilities.
SB 6121 requires utilities to develop separate tariffs for large energy use facilities (defined as those using 20 megawatts or more) by June 2027. These tariffs will ensure such facilities bear the full costs and risks of new infrastructure investments they necessitate, rather than passing them to residential, small commercial, or existing industrial customers. The bill directly affects large energy users like data centers and industrial facilities by changing how they pay for electricity service. This policy change aims to prevent unwarranted rate increases for other ratepayers while clarifying cost responsibility for infrastructure needs driven by large consumers.
