CA AB2788

Prohibits electrical corporations, gas corporations, and local publicly owned electric utilities from sharing customer electrical or gas consumption data with immigration authorities without a court-ordered subpoena or judicial warrant

Defines "electrical or gas consumption data" as usage data from advanced metering infrastructure, including the customer's name, account number, and address

Existing exceptions for sharing data (such as for grid operations, energy efficiency programs, or with customer consent) remain in place, but the immigration authority restriction cannot be overridden by these general exceptions

Applies to both investor-owned utilities regulated by the Public Utilities Commission and locally owned public electric utilities governed by their own boards
