The bill amends Title 53 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes by adding a new section that prohibits municipalities from adopting policies that restrict or prohibit utility services based on the type of energy source. Specifically, municipalities cannot discriminate against utility service providers or restrict individuals' or entities' ability to connect or reconnect utility services based on the nature or source of the service. The bill aims to ensure that all utility service providers are treated equally and that residents have the freedom to choose their utility service provider without municipal interference.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that municipalities retain the authority to manage publicly owned utilities and take actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as purchasing renewable energy. It also specifies that exercising land use authority under the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code does not restrict individuals or entities from selecting their utility service provider. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
