the competitive transition charge. The commission shall 7
take into consideration the electric utility's expected rate 8
of return on the generation assets, the proceeds obtained in 9
the divestiture process under section 393.2018, and the 10
effect on a retail customer's electricity costs. The 11
commission may also consider other criteria deemed 12
appropriate by the commission in assessing the stranded cost 13
recovery and the collection period of such costs. 14
393.2018. 1. At any time prior to and consistent with 1
the timeline under section 393.2006, electric utilities 2
shall divest their generation assets. Such generation 3
assets may be divested in one or both of the following 4
options with the approval of the commission: 5
(1) Sell generation assets to an unaffiliated entity 6
or entities at a fair market value; or 7
SB 1411 9
(2) Transfer generation assets to a non-utility 8
affiliate at a fair market value. 9
2. During and after the divestiture process under this 10
section, the commission shall determine whether it is 11
necessary to establish, in addition to existing independent 12
system operator market power protections that may be 13
applicable, an independent market monitor to ensure that no 14
entity owns generation assets in an amount that gives that 15
entity market power. 16
393.2021. 1. Consistent with the time frame for 1
choosing a retail electric supplier pursuant to sections 2
393.2006 and 393.2009, electric utilities shall provide 3
default supply service to retail customers that do not 4
choose a retail electric supplier. 5

electric energy, along with any additional costs incurred in 8
the provision of such services by the independent system 9
operator. 10
3. Default supply service for medium commercial and 11
industrial customers shall commence with a rate set every 12
six months through a competitive procurement process along 13
with any additional costs incurred in the provision of such 14
services by the independent system operator. If at any time 15
less than seventy percent of the annual megawatt-hour 16
consumption of such rate class is supplied by the electric 17
supply established by the competitive procurement process, 18
the commission shall initiate a proceeding within three 19
months of when the less than seventy percent threshold was 20
reached to phase out the electric supply established by the 21
competitive procurement process and replace it with the 22
hourly priced default supply service. 23
SB 1411 10
4. Default supply service for small commercial and 24
industrial customers shall commence with a rate set annually 25
through a competitive procurement process along with any 26
additional costs incurred in the provision of such services 27
by the independent system operator. If at any time less 28
than sixty percent of the annual megawatt-hour consumption 29
of such rate class is supplied by the electric supply 30
established by the competitive procurement process, the 31
commission shall initiate a proceeding within three months 32
of when the less than sixty percent threshold was reached to 33
phase out the electric supply established by the competitive 34
procurement process and replace it with the hourly priced 35
default supply service. 36
5. Default supply service for residential customers 37
shall commence with a rate set annually through a 38
competitive procurement process along with any additional 39
costs incurred in the provision of such services by the 40
independent system operator. If at any time less than fifty 41
percent of the annual megawatt-hour consumption of such rate 42
class is supplied by the electric supply established by the 43
competitive procurement process, the commission shall 44
initiate a proceeding within three months of when the less 45
than fifty percent threshold was reached to phase out the 46
electric supply established by the competitive procurement 47
process and replace it with the hourly priced default supply 48
service or another default supply service approved by the 49
commission. 50
6. The competitive procurement processes under this 51
section shall consist of a wholesale power auction or 52
similar competitive process to establish a clearing price or 53
rate including electric supply, capacity, transmission, 54
ancillary services, and other services identified by the 55
SB 1411 11
commission, for the retail customers in each rate class that 56
do not choose a retail electric supplier. Such auctions 57
shall occur pursuant to a schedule approved by the 58
commission consistent with the default supply services under 59
this section and as frequently as necessary. 60
7. For each default supply service rate class category 61
under this section, the retail rate shall also include all 62
administrative and operational costs, including direct and 63
indirect costs, that are incurred to provide default supply 64
service to retail customers. 65
(1) Direct costs to provide default supply service 66
shall be fully allocated to the rate for each rate class. 67
Indirect or shared costs incurred to provide default supply 68
service shall also be allocated to the rate for each rate 69
class. Allocation of indirect or shared costs shall be 70
determined in accordance with the provisions of this chapter 71
and through a fully allocated cost study performed by the 72
electric utility and presented to the commission, subject to 73
stakeholder input. This cost study shall include each and 74
every cost category that can reasonably be deemed necessary 75
to provide or support the provision of default supply 76
service. 77
(2) Indirect costs to be recovered in the default 78
supply service rate under this section shall be re-evaluated 79
at a time period deemed appropriate by the commission but no 80
later than every six months. A commission-approved tariff 81
shall be established to administer the cost allocation 82
mechanism under this section. 83
8. For each rate class, once an hourly priced default 84
supply service has been in operation for six months, the 85
commission shall initiate a proceeding to establish a 86
process to phase out the default supply service with an 87
SB 1411 12
alternative electric supply service provided by one or more 88
retail electric suppliers for the purpose of supplying 89
retail customers in the rate class who do not choose a 90
retail electric supplier. 91
393.2024. 1. The commission may establish a separate 1
process for the supply of electric supply service for energy 2
assistance customers in each electric utility service 3
geographical area. This process shall include the grouping 4
of the subset of energy assistance residential customers 5
into an aggregation program. 6
2. The aggregation of customers to be supplied 7
electric supply services by a retail supplier shall be 8
chosen by a competitive bidding process for a term length 9
established by the commission. The competitive bidding 10
process may be repeated in advance of the expiration of the 11
initial term length for the next term. 12
3. The retail supplier selected in the competitive 13
bidding process under this section shall offer a price at or 14
below the default supply service rate set annually through a 15
competitive procurement process for residential customers 16
for the same or similar term length. If the electric supply 17
service chosen by a competitive procurement process for 18
default supply service is replaced with an hourly default 19
supply service, the commission may institute an alternative 20
pricing threshold for purposes of the energy assistance 21
customer aggregation program under this section. 22
4. Energy assistance customers shall have the ability 23
to opt-out of the electric supply service aggregation 24
program. If the energy assistance customers choose to opt- 25
out, such customers shall no longer be eligible for any 26
energy assistance relief. 27
SB 1411 13
5. The commission shall hold a public hearing 28
regarding the energy assistance residential customers 29
aggregation program under this section prior to the 30
implementation of the aggregation program. 31
393.2027. 1. All electric utilities shall provide 1
open and nondiscriminatory access to their data and systems 2
as needed to retail electric suppliers. All electric 3
utilities shall continue to provide metering services but 4
customer-specific data and other relevant customer 5
information shall be made available to retail electric 6
suppliers so long as the retail electric suppliers receive a 7
retail customer's consent for the release of the customer 8
data. 9
2. The commission shall develop a process to obtain 10
customer consent for the release of customer data under this 11
section. Commonly used digital signatures or similar 12
methods consistent with the current technological 13
capabilities shall be sufficient to receive customer consent. 14
3. Customer data under this section shall include: 15
(1) At least two years of customer usage and metering 16
data and other information, including, but not limited to, 17
customer details, transmission details, or any issues with 18

the necessary procedures and requirements to implement the 41
utility consolidated billing and supplier consolidated 42
billing methods under this section to be available at the 43
time residential customers choose their retail electric 44
supplier. 45
8. Within six months after residential customers 46
choose a retail electric supplier, electric utilities shall 47
implement an accelerated switching process where residential 48
customers may change retail electric suppliers within three 49
business days after the customers are permitted to choose a 50
retail electric supplier pursuant to the provision of 51
section 393.2006. Additionally, residential and small 52
commercial and industrial customers moving within an 53
electric utility's geographic service area shall continue to 54
receive electric supply services from the same retail 55
electric supplier without being required to switch to a 56
different retail electric supplier. 57
9. The commission shall have the authority to 58
investigate and establish rules for additional programs 59
designed to improve the retail customer's experience in 60
SB 1411 15
choosing a retail electric supplier for electric supply 61
services. Such programs may include, but are not limited 62
to, net-metering incentives, community solar programs, 63
customer referrals, and municipal aggregation programs. 64
393.2030. 1. Six months after August 28, 2026, the 1
commission shall develop a customer education program to 2
ensure that all retail customers have access to accurate 3
information about their ability to choose a retail electric 4
supplier. The program shall explore ways for the commission 5
to work with electric utilities and retail electric 6
suppliers to distribute educational pieces as well as 7
appropriate cost recovery from all customers to support the 8
customer education program. The commission may delegate to 9
the office of retail market development under section 10
393.2033 some or all of the administrative work required in 11
the development of the customer education program. 12
2. To the extent the costs of the customer education 13
program are known when the restructuring plans under section 14
393.2009 are submitted to the commission, costs may be 15
approved for recovery through the non-bypassable competitive 16
transition charge. 17
3. The commission shall explore the use of a website 18
that explains a retail electric supplier's services and 19
makes comparisons between the electric supply services and 20
related products being offered by retail electric suppliers. 21
393.2033. 1. The commission shall establish the 1
"Office of Retail Market Development and Oversight", to be 2
funded by an annual assessment of retail electric suppliers 3
