House Bill No. [insert number] enacts Chapter 67-A of Title 51 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes, known as the "Energy Utility Reporting Transparency Act." This new chapter establishes definitions related to energy utility providers and mandates the Public Service Commission (PSC) to publish annual consumption reports for properties with multiple meters. The PSC is required to create and distribute a list of energy utilities that offer or do not offer the option for property owners to request these reports, ensuring transparency in energy consumption data.

Under the provisions of this bill, energy utilities must report to the PSC by January 15 each year regarding their offerings of annual consumption reports. While the bill does not obligate utilities to provide these reports, it requires them to disclose their service options to the PSC. The PSC is tasked with implementing necessary rules and regulations for the collection and publication of this information, with the first publication due by March 1 of each year, covering the previous calendar year. The act will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated period for bills to become law without a signature.
