This bill clarifies South Dakota's definition of "backup electric generation" by specifying that it means electricity generated off-grid on a temporary basis to replace the primary power source when it becomes unavailable. The change makes the definition more precise by explicitly stating that backup generation must not be connected to the electrical grid and must be used only as a temporary replacement.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
