Protecting Families from AI Data Center Energy Costs Act

This bill is called the Protecting Families from AI Data Center Energy Costs Act. It orders the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to hold a technical conference within 90 days. This conference must include the Department of Energy, public utilities, state regulators, ratepayer advocates, and large loads like artificial intelligence data centers. The goal is to talk about strategies and rate structures to protect everyday families and small businesses from paying higher energy costs caused by these large loads. After the conference ends, the Commission has 180 days to send a report with recommendations and best practices to specific committees in the House of Representatives and the Senate.
