MI HB6383

Requires municipally owned utilities to permit retail customers to choose alternative electric suppliers, subject to implementation of rates, charges, terms, and conditions set by the utility.

Grants exclusive jurisdiction to the governing body of a municipally owned utility to set delivery service rates that are not unduly discriminatory, determine stranded and transition costs, and establish rules and conditions for alternative supplier programs.

Prohibits third parties from providing delivery service or customer account services to customers of a municipally owned utility without written consent, defining "customer" as the building or facilities served rather than the individual entity.

Requires acquiring entities that purchase divisions, business units, or generating stations from municipal electric utilities to maintain workforce employment protections for at least 30 months, including offering comparable wages, fringe benefits, and working conditions to existing employees.

Establishes that complaints regarding unduly discriminatory rates must be filed in circuit court rather than with the Public Service Commission, and allows municipal utilities to exempt certain electricity sale contracts from public disclosure when containing confidential pricing information.
