Consumer Regulated Electricity: The Path to Faster, Reliable Power Solutions?
Why would a data center or other new large electricity load be interested in advocating for state policy which would allow companies to create new, unregulated utilities? (This is what we're calling Consumer Regulated Electricity or CRE.) "New, unregulated suppliers operating outside of the regulated grid will be able to bring back the speed and innovation that were lost [by the sector] a century ago. CRE utilities could supply one large load or bundle several together, regulated by the consumers (their customers), contractual arrangements, and the ever-present threat of competition."
