What this bill does
- States must require electric utilities to plan for reliable electricity supply over 10-year periods.
- This applies to utilities that use integrated resource planning rather than capacity market models.
- States consider whether utilities should maintain or contract for generation facilities that work continuously for 30+ days even during emergencies.
