AN ACT CONCERNING COLOCATED ELECTRIC SUPPLIERS AND LARGE ELECTRIC LOAD CUSTOMERS.

This bill updates definitions for utility companies and related terms within Connecticut's energy and environmental protection laws. It clarifies which entities are considered public service companies, gas companies, water companies, and other utility providers while explicitly excluding municipalities, private power producers, and certain government-owned systems from these definitions. The changes affect how the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority and Department of Energy and Environmental Protection classify and regulate various utility services across the state. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2026, and primarily impacts regulatory oversight rather than creating new operational requirements for customers or suppliers.
