AI Summary
This bill aims to promote local energy investment and infrastructure modernization. It requires electric distribution companies to create and submit Grid Modernization Plans every three years, which must include evaluations of locational benefits and costs of local energy resources, updated interconnection procedures for distributed renewable generation facilities, and proposals for advanced metering functionality and cost-effective methods to maximize the benefits of local energy resources. The bill also establishes a Grid Modernization Consumer Board to review and approve these plans, and requires local gas distribution companies to create Fossil Fuel Phase-out and Electrification Plans to enable the transition to a clean, electrified energy future by 2050.
