Draft Text

Establishes a clean transition tariff for large energy-intensive users to fund grid upgrades and prevent cost-shifting to residential and small.

The bill establishes a Tennessee clean transition tariff for large energy-intensive users, such as data centers and AI facilities, to fund grid upgrades and prevent cost-shifting to residential and small business customers. It requires local power companies to ensure these users bear the proportional cost of grid upgrades and prohibits cost recovery from smaller customers. The Tennessee Public Utility Commission must review tariff structures and report annually on large-load impacts and cost allocation.
