Bill > HB05923

This bill establishes a task force with three primary objectives: First, the task force will study how the electric distribution market can be restructured to improve accountability and responsiveness to ratepayers, focusing on companies currently defined under Connecticut General Statutes section 16-1. Second, the task force will explore the potential introduction of competition within the electric transmission and distribution services industry in the state. Third, the task force will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the costs associated with acquiring electric transmission or distribution infrastructure from existing electric distribution companies, and provide recommendations about whether such infrastructure acquisitions are essential for maintaining the state's electric grid reliability. By creating this task force, the bill aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the current electric distribution system, with a focus on improving service quality, exploring market competitiveness, and ensuring reliable infrastructure for Connecticut's electric grid.
