Encourages deployment of low carbon thermal energy networks in Washington.

This bill encourages the deployment of low carbon thermal energy networks by amending various sections of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW). It defines terms such as "thermal energy company" and "thermal energy network," and exempts certain thermal energy networks from commission regulation. The bill also mandates that the Utilities and Transportation Commission follow national and international development of interoperability standards for thermal energy networks and report on their readiness for adoption.
