The bill would restructure the Energy Regulatory Commission, expanding its membership, setting new qualifications and a single seven‑year term, giving it authority to use half of its fee‑derived revenues for its own budget (split 10 % capital, 60 % operations, 30 % personnel), raising commissioners’ pay to Supreme Court‑level, creating training programs, new divisions, consumer support desks, and stronger conflict‑of‑interest rules, while also defining fines for violations.
