Colorado Public Utilities Commission Data Centers Public Hearing - 4 PM

About this event

Public Comment Hearing: 26AL-0137E Public Service Company - AL 2018 - Tariff 8 - Large Load, C3

The Colorado Public Utilities Commission will hold a public hearing concerning whether large load customers (those requiring 50 MW or more) would be required to cover the costs of the specific transmission lines, substations, interconnection upgrades and new electric generation capacity needed to serve them. New customers using between 20 and 50 MW may also be subject to the tariff.
  • Preventing existing ratepayers from subsidizing the infrastructure upgrades required for new, large-scale industrial growth
  • Requiring large customers to sign contracts of 15 years or more, ensuring they remain invested in the system they helped expand
  • Minimum monthly payments and early-termination charges to protect the utility from "stranded costs" if a data center closes or scales back
  • Pathways for large users to pursue and utilize innovative, carbon-free power
This meeting is in-person and online and open to the public.
