WA HB2413

Modifies administrative penalties under the Clean Energy Transformation Act (CETA) by applying multipliers based on fuel type: 1.5x for coal-fired resources, 0.84x for gas-fired peaking plants, and 0.60x for gas-fired combined-cycle plants per megawatt-hour of non-compliant generation

Creates a formal "resource adequacy crisis" declaration process allowing utilities to petition the Department of Commerce or Utilities and Transportation Commission based on specific metrics, including loss of load events exceeding thresholds or greater than 5% loss of load probability in approved resource plans

Permits utilities during a declared resource adequacy crisis to designate natural gas generation for up to 30 years to meet reliability targets without violating the state's greenhouse gas neutrality requirements (RCW 19.405.040 and 19.405.050)

Authorizes the governor to suspend, delay, or exempt utilities from CETA implementation and penalties when reports demonstrate adverse system reliability impacts, until new generating resources can address shortages projected to reach 9 gigawatts by 2030

Establishes fair market value compensation requirements using a replacement value approach for utility assets condemned by municipal utilities, public utility districts, or irrigation districts that are used to meet clean energy standards
