The General Assembly Raised Bill No. 1293 mandates the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection to conduct a comprehensive study on the operations, reliability, rates, and regulatory oversight of electric utilities within the state. The bill requires the commissioner to submit a report detailing the findings of this study to the joint standing committee responsible for energy and technology matters by January 1, 2026.
This legislation introduces new legal language that establishes the requirement for the study as a new section effective from the date of passage. It also clarifies that the report must comply with the provisions of section 11-4a of the general statutes. The bill does not include any deletions from current law, as indicated by the absence of proposed deletions in the text.
