Intermunicipal Electric Utilities Negotiations

07/06/24

“What happens when two municipal water utilities have to negotiate with each other?”

Municipal electric utilities are electric utilities owned by a municipality. This means that towns may have to find their own energy resources. If two different energy utilities come into conflict with each other, whether it be over a disagreement in jurisdictional area or resource ownership, they will need to enter Intermunicipal Energy Utilities Negotiations. They can either solve this together or go to a higher legal authority such as a utilities commission.
