 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 10680

 IN ASSEMBLY

 March 20, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. BORES -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Energy

 AN ACT to amend the public service law, in relation to voluntary rates
 for residential customers utilizing heat pumps as the primary heating
 source

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The public service law is amended by adding a new section
 2 66-x to read as follows:
 3 § 66-x. Voluntary rates for heat pumps. 1. For the purposes of this
 4 section, unless the context otherwise requires, "heat pump" means an
 5 electrically powered device that uses the refrigeration cycle to trans-
 6 fer thermal energy from one location to another.
 7 2. On or before August first, two thousand twenty-seven, an investor-
 8 owned gas or electrical corporation that provides electric or thermal
 9 energy shall, within a general rate case request, submit to the commis-
 10 sion a proposal for a voluntary rate or rates for energy supplied to
 11 residential customers who utilize a heat pump as their primary heating
 12 source. Such voluntary rate or rates:
 13 (a) May be new rates, new or existing riders, or incorporated into an
 14 existing time-of-use rate;
 15 (b) If cost-justified, shall be designed to lower the average monthly
 16 energy bill of residential customers who utilize a heat pump as their
 17 primary heating source; and
 18 (c) Avoid cross-subsidies from other customers.
 19 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
