Adopt the Grid Modernization Act

Failed·4/17/26
Introduced Text

Adopts the Grid Modernization Act to regulate large-scale electric service requests and contracts.

The Grid Modernization Act governs large-scale electric service requests and contracts in Nebraska. It defines terms such as "large-load customer," "large-scale generation provider," and "large-load contract." Public power utilities must evaluate service requests and negotiate contracts with customers. Large-scale generation providers must register with the Nebraska Power Review Board and use qualifying generation resources. The board reviews and approves contracts, ensuring costs are allocated fairly and customers bear incremental costs.
