Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Public Utilities Act. Provides that any residential or small commercial retail customer of an electric utility that on December 31, 2005 provided electric service to at least 2,000,000 customers in Illinois that has returned to that electric utility's bundled utility tariffed service offering may elect delivery services of electric power and energy supply service from an alternative retail electric supplier after at least 6 continuous monthly billing periods of electric power and supply service from that utility; however, the residential or small commercial retail customer shall not be permitted to return to the same alternative retail electric supplier within 2 billing cycles after the customer returned to that electric utility's bundled utility tariffed service other than in situations where the return was in error, inadvertent, or the result of any other unintended operational consequence. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Public Utilities Act. Allows electric utilities to impose the condition that customers may not be permitted to return to an alternative retail electric supplier within 2 billing cycles after the customer returned to bundled utility customer service if the customer has not elected delivery services within 2 billing cycles after returning to the electric utility's bundled utility tariffed service offering. Strikes language allowing the customer to return to the alternative retail electric supplier if the customer's return to bundled utility tariffed service was in error, inadvertent, or the result of any other unintended operational consequence. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the engrossed bill with the following changes: provides that, notwithstanding any other obligation of an electric utility, the electric utility shall be entitled, but not required, to impose the condition that a customer who has left delivery service for the electric utility's bundled service not be permitted (rather than to impose the condition that the customer may not be permitted) to return to the same alternative retail electric supplier within up to 2 billing cycles (rather than within 2 billing cycles) after the customer returned to bundled utility tariff service other than in situations, including, but not limited to, where the return was in error, inadvertent, or the result of any other unintended operational consequence. Effective immediately.
