North Carolina H638

North Carolina H638 is in committee.

This bill addresses how rapidly growing electricity demand — likely from data centers and AI facilities — is managed and paid for on North Carolina's power grid. It aims to ensure that the costs of expanding grid capacity are distributed fairly among those driving the increased demand rather than spread to all ratepayers.

Recorded sponsors: Donnie Loftis, Bill Ward, Steve Tyson, Dudley Greene.
