ORS 757.672 Application of ORS 757.603 to 757.667 to consumer-owned electric utility; reciprocal electricity sales

Nothing in ORS 757.603 to 757.667 is intended to limit or restrict the rights and authority of a consumer-owned utility, or to subject a consumer-owned utility to the regulatory authority of the Public Utility Commission not otherwise provided by law. ORS 757.603 to 757.667 shall not apply to a consumer-owned utility.

Notwithstanding subsection (1) of this section, a consumer-owned utility that sells electricity, either directly or through a related party, to a nonresidential electricity consumer of another electric utility in this state, shall permit any other electricity service supplier to sell electricity to the consumer-owned utility’s nonresidential electricity consumers whose electricity use, measured in average megawatts per year, is equal to or greater than the use of the nonresidential electricity consumer of the other electric utility. Such consumer-owned utility shall be subject to ORS 757.649 (1) to (4) and rules adopted thereunder.
