I am writing to express my support for HB233 currently in committee that establishes separate, higher energy rates for large energy-use facilities such as data centers. This legislation is vital to ensure that the costs of expanding infrastructure and maintaining grid reliability are not unfairly shifted onto residential customers, small businesses, and other ratepayers. By requiring regulated utilities to set distinct rates for these high-demand users, the Act promotes fairness and protects everyday consumers from bearing the financial burden of rapid growth in energy-intensive industries. I urge you to support this bill and help safeguard affordable and reliable energy for households and small businesses across our state.
