Electric utilities - electric vehicles - charging ports and related infrastructure - cost recovery for investments - limitation on rate impact. The act authorizes electric public utilities to provide charging ports as regulated services and allows cost recovery.

When a facility is built, the rates and charges for the services may allow: A return on any investment made by a public utility at the utility's weighted average cost of capital with the most recent rate of return on equity approved by the commission; For rate recovery mechanisms that allow earlier recovery of costs; and For performance-based incentive returns or similar investment incentives.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
