New Jersey A796 requires electric public utilities to develop special tariffs for large load data centers to protect non-data center customers from.

New Jersey A796 mandates that electric public utilities establish and apply special tariffs for large load data centers. These tariffs must protect non-data center customers from increased costs due to higher electricity demand.
