Arizona HB2738 allows electric utility customers to opt out of service if the provider commits to replacing reliable sources with intermittent ones.

Arizona HB2738 amends the Arizona Revised Statutes to allow electric utility customers to opt out of service if their provider declares a carbon emissions reduction goal or commits to replacing reliable and dispatchable sources of electricity with intermittent sources. The Arizona Corporation Commission must establish guidelines for alternative, safe, affordable, and reliable retail electric service by other providers in the same service territory. The bill also mandates the commission to adopt rules allowing customers to petition to opt out and sets procedures for evaluating such petitions.
