The purpose of this bill is to provide for special rates for energy intensive industrial consumers of electric power. The bill sets forth legislative findings on energy intensive industrial consumers of electric power and defines certain terms. The bill authorizes the Public Service Commission to establish special rates for energy intensive industrial consumers of electric power. The bill sets forth factors that the Public Service Commission may take into consideration in establishing special rates for energy intensive industrial consumers of electric power, in addition to factors that may already be considered by the Public Service Commission in its rate setting process and authorizes the commission to adopt mechanisms reasonably designed to assure appropriate flexibility and predictability of special rates. The bill establishes procedures for application to the Public Service Commission for a special rate, sets forth data and information to be included in an application for a special rate and establishes qualifications for eligibility for a special rate. This section is new; therefore, strike-throughs and underscoring have been omitted.
