Extended service limits for large power users

Through July 1, 2027, Kansas utilities can decline to offer parallel generation service to qualifying large customers. This service connects a customer's own power generation to the utility grid. The rule covers new or expanded facilities starting electric service on or after July 1, 2025, at 34.5 kilovolts or higher. Through the same expiration date, added demand from qualifying industrial, commercial, and data center customers is excluded from utilities' historic peak-demand calculations. The law does not provide a direct household benefit or payment.
