Senate Bill 145 has been introduced which would amend the definition of “public utility” to add an additional subdivision which would read as follows:
(J) The term “public utility” does not include an entity that:
(i) Is a net-metering customer as defined in § 23-18-603;
(ii) Is a net-metering facility as defined in § 23-18-603; or
(iii) Develops, plans, installs, constructs, or otherwise provides a net-metering facility as defined in § 23-18-603 to a met-metering customer as defined in § 23-18-603;
Senate Bill 145 is sponsored by Senator David Wallace of Leachville, Arkansas.
The legislation would also address the phrases “net-metering customer” and “net-metering facility.”
