Summary
The bill would preempt state and local laws that require electricity generation, retail sales, or procurement to include a specified percentage or quantity of renewable, zero-emission, or carbon-free energy, such as renewable portfolio standards. It would also bar states and regulators from conditioning market participation, cost recovery, or utility regulation on compliance with those requirements, and would void any inconsistent state law. The bill states that its purpose is to protect grid reliability and limit electricity costs, while supporters and opponents of such mandates disagree on their effects on reliability and prices. A savings provision clarifies that states and their political subdivisions may still own or operate renewable or carbon-free generation facilities.
