AN ACT CREATING A CONNECTICUT ENERGY DATA ACCESS BILL OF RIGHTS.

SB 88 establishes Connecticut's Energy Data Access Bill of Rights, requiring public access to specific energy-related data to support climate goals. It mandates disclosure of building energy use, consumption, storage, solar interconnection details, and vehicle propulsion data by type. This bill directly affects residents, researchers, and organizations needing transparent data to track progress toward state climate targets. The key provision is creating a legal requirement for state agencies to make these datasets publicly available. The purpose is to enable informed decision-making on climate policy without imposing new regulatory requirements on energy providers.
