“Voted Aye on Arizona HB 2756, letting the Corporation Commission make extra-high-load-factor customers pay for the infrastructure built to serve them”

Final House passage of Arizona's data center grid-cost bill. The enacted law lets the Corporation Commission set required service characteristics for "extra high load factor customers" - minimum billing, minimum contract length, early-exit terms, collateral or guarantees, and requirements that these customers pay the costs of infrastructure additions needed to serve them, supported by filed schedules demonstrating protection of non-extra-high-load-factor customers from subsidizing them - and requires semiannual interconnection reports and cost-of-service studies. Signed by Gov. Hobbs June 4, 2026. POLARITY NOTE: every recorded no vote came from a Democrat, and the roll-call record does not state their reasons, so the nay votes are recorded with an unclear stance rather than being scored as opposing ratepayer protection. Outcome: Passed the House on final reading, Ayes 39, Nays 16 (5 not voting); signed by the governor June 4, 2026 as Chapter 111 Recorded vote: Aye. Body: Arizona House of Representatives. Measure: AZ HB 2756 (2026, 57th Legislature 2nd Regular Session).
