Michigan SB0890 limits fees for certain payment transactions by public utilities.

Michigan SB0890 amends the Public Utilities Commission's authority to set service quality and reliability standards for electric utilities. The bill mandates that utilities establish a worker transition program for employees during ownership transfers. It also limits fees charged to residential customers for credit or debit card payments, requiring utilities to offer at least one cost-free payment method. The commission can levy financial incentives and penalties for entities that fail to meet the set standards.
