MINOR
The bill text was reformatted from a standard introduced bill to a substitute amendment version, with one substantive policy addition: a new requirement that licensed suppliers must match a percentage of customer annual load with renewable energy certificates from PJM region resources (excluding biomass, waste heat, landfill gas, and municipal solid waste) for contracts signed after July 1, 2025. This percentage must match what the customer's incumbent utility applies under § 56-585.5. The rest of the document shows formatting changes and line number adjustments rather than substantive policy modifications.
