Official description

Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. In provisions concerning utility data access, provides that the Illinois Commerce Commission shall enact procedures whereby a qualified utility shall retain, for a period of not less than 7 years, monthly consumption data that reflects consumption that occurred in or after 2022 and that was used for billing (rather than a qualified utility shall retain monthly consumption data used for billing for a period of not less than 15 years). Provides that a qualified utility shall retain, for a period of not less than 15 years, monthly consumption data that reflects consumption that occurred in or after 2028 and that was used for billing. Provides that the account holder request process and utility delivery of requested data shall be convenient and secure, and, at the Commission's direction, requests to the utility may be submitted exclusively through an online portal (rather than only the request process shall be convenient and secure). Provides that data recipients may request and receive timely revisions correcting erroneous utility data. Removes provisions concerning the stakeholder process. Provides that, for any covered usage data that a utility provides to a data recipient must be available to be requested online, except that a nonqualified utility may provide only paper request forms upon a showing of hardship (rather than the covered usage data must be available to be requested online and in printable paper form). Makes other changes.
