Introduced Text

Montana HB877 establishes the Montana Data Center Development Act to support data center growth.

Montana HB877, the Montana Data Center Development Act, aims to foster data center development by clarifying the role of the Public Service Commission and ensuring large customers can obtain electricity service. The act appropriates funds to market Montana as a data center location and to assist data center developers in acquiring electrical resources. It also ensures that large customers who existed before October 1, 2007, cannot switch electricity suppliers, while new large customers can obtain service from public utilities.
