The proposed General Assembly Raised Bill No. 6780 establishes an "Energy Data Access Bill of Rights" aimed at ensuring Connecticut residents have access to essential data that supports the state's climate goals and renewable energy targets. Effective October 1, 2025, the bill outlines specific rights for residents, including the ability to view data related to the state's building stock, registered vehicles, renewable energy sources, and energy storage projects. Additionally, it mandates the creation of a centralized database and public website where this information can be accessed, as well as the right for residents to view and share their own energy usage data collected by electric distribution companies.

The bill emphasizes that these rights will be implemented in accordance with existing laws, regulations, and constitutional provisions. It does not propose any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to establish the rights and access outlined in the bill. The overarching goal is to facilitate informed decision-making regarding climate targets and to enhance transparency in monitoring progress towards these objectives.
