Montana HB314 would establish a State Energy Authority to oversee energy generation and transmission in Montana.

Montana HB314 proposes the creation of a State Energy Authority to facilitate the development of Montana's energy resources. The authority would be composed of 14 members appointed by the governor, representing various sectors including state and local utilities, cooperatives, developers, and stakeholders. The authority's responsibilities include planning, developing, and coordinating energy generation and transmission projects, both within and outside the state. It would also engage in economic analysis, contract for necessary services, and participate in regional energy initiatives.
