Introduced Text

Nebraska LB1172 establishes requirements for electric suppliers to maintain dispatchable electricity capacity and mandates procedures for closing or.

Nebraska LB1172 amends section 70-1034 to require electric suppliers to maintain at least 75% of dispatchable electricity capacity in their generation portfolio. If an entity decides to close or decommission a dispatchable electric generation facility, it must notify the Nebraska Power Review Board. The board may hold a confidential hearing to provide recommendations on the closure's impact, including transition activities for workers and affected communities. The board's recommendations are advisory, and the entity must consider them before finalizing the closure decision.
