New Hampshire HB1722 establishes consumer protections and energy classifications for large-use electric facilities.

New Hampshire HB1722 introduces a new chapter in the state's Revised Statutes to establish consumer protections and energy classifications for large-use electric facilities. The bill defines "large-energy-use facility" as a facility using 20 megawatts or more at peak demand, primarily engaged in services like computer processing and data centers. The Public Utilities Commission is tasked with creating a separate classification for these facilities, distinct from existing commercial or industrial service classes, with its own tariff schedule.
