Electric utilities; construction and development of renewable energy facilities, etc.

Summary

This bill addresses the regulatory framework for electric utility energy development in the Commonwealth. It repeals several existing provisions that established carbon dioxide emissions reduction requirements, restricted certain types of utility-owned generation facilities, and declared that renewable energy sources including solar, wind, and energy storage are in the public interest. In place of these provisions, the bill establishes that planning and development activities for new nuclear generation facilities are in the public interest.
